Vashon Island
Lavender Farms - we are an association of
women growing lavender on each of our farms
on Vashon Island. Meeting each other quite
by chance, we found mutual enthusiasm for
lavender! Our group shares information and
expertise in cultivation of lavender and
works together to promote Vashon Island
Lavender. This year we will host the 6th
Annual Vashon Island Lavender Farm Tour on
July 19 and 20, 2008, from 10am to 5pm.
Our farms use organic methods, and we grow
and sell fresh cut lavender bunches, dried
lavender bunches, loose lavender for sachets
or culinary uses, essential oil and
hydrosols as well as beautiful hand crafted
items. Most of the lavender is sold as fresh
cut bunches during July and early August, at
Farmer's Markets and at the Annual Lavender
Farm Tour on Vashon.
We grow more than 28 varieties on our farms,
each cultivar having it's own special
characteristics of bloom time, fragrance,
color, stem length and oil content.
Come appreciate this
wonderful plant! |
