The scent of lavender can be inhaled throughout the summer throughout the Sequim-Dungeness Valley as the lavender blooms.
Many of the fields begin to turn purple near the end of June; by mid-July, the areas are in full color, and harvest starts later in August. However, the Lavandula Stoecha and the Spanish lavender begin the colorful parade in spring.
During this time, you can enjoy purchasing a fresh-cut bouquet of lavender, essential oil, soaps, or a cool, refreshing scoop of lavender ice cream.
