We visited this farm yesterday (mid May). The farm is just impressive.. and gorgeous! The scent of the lavender as you walk the farm was mesmerizing!
The owners are very welcoming. They gave us a brief info about this whole operation and how it was started!
We loved being here!!
There is a small store where they sell the lavender based products! (Most of them are produced right in the farm). There are quite a few different products & some could make a really great gift/souvenirs!

We visited this farm in mid-may but I heard that it looks more gorgeous around june with all the lavenders bloom showcasing their amazing color!

They do allow well-behaved on leash dogs!

It’s definitely a must visit if you are in salt spring island!

Unbelievable amazing spot! The employees and lab staff are very friendly. They took their time explaining about the plants outside and what they produced inside. Smells fantastic! I highly recommend stopping this gem!

Beautiful lavender fields. We came on a sunny weekday early July. This year, the lavender was slow and just starting to bloom. But it was still beautiful. We were greeted by their friendly dog. The staff gave us a tour of the field, and told us about the different types and corresponding uses of their lavender. Their store was cozy and charming. They had a variety of in-house made lavender products, including for culinary, medicinal, and spiritual purposes. We finished the experience with their lavender ice cream, which was very fragrant.

The only thing that interrupted the zen vibes was getting yelled at by another staff member when we had accidentally stepped off the main path. I'm sorry -- it wasn't labeled or blocked, we weren't told, we merely stepped two feet off the main gravel path onto another gravel path. Other than that, it was a great experience.

Beautiful lavender farm. Free entry and had a brief explanation. A pleasant visit ona hot July day. The bees were buzzing and totally focused on the lavender. Only downside was they had sold out of lavender ice cream during my visit.

As a local guide, I can honestly say this is a nice place to come with your friends and your mom and look at some cool lavender and it smells incredible, better than I thought it would smell, and the ice cream is really subtle and delicious

Two of us dropped by here after seeing it on the Studio Tour, and it was possibly favourite stop on the island! The host was very polite and informative, teaching us about the process of cultivating, harvesting, and processing the different types of lavender there. The shop is well arranged, and after casually wandering the premises, we couldn't resist picking up some of their products!

This lavender farm is so beautiful and has a gorgeous view of the ocean at the end of the trail! Dan was super lovely explaining the farm! They have lavender mint kombucha which I can’t wait to try! Definitely recommend stopping by it’s so peaceful with the crickets and garden snakes slithering around !

Wow!!! This farm is absolutely incredible. Visiting this gem was a highlight of my time on Salt Spring. The customer service blew us away - Awatief and Ben were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and shared fascinating information about lavender and steam distillation... they were so generous with their time with us and so thorough in welcoming us to their lavender paradise! The farm has a very special, tranquil energy and all the plants are thriving, healthy and gorgeous. When we were browsing the shop I was blown away by the quality and complexity of the blends, they have so many absolutely gorgeous products. Throughout our entire experience we could really sense Awatief and Ben's passion and expertise. As an essential oil nerd I found this place to be beautifully thought out, creating extremely high quality natural products and of course having the sweetest owners providing exceptional service. Do not miss this experience if you are on Salt Spring - it truly made my trip so very special and meaningful.
