If you're a Lavender Lover or just want something fun to add to your list of things to do this summer, I suggest you check out these festivals:
Hosted by Mike Neustrom, owner of Prairie Lavender Farm, this looks like one fun festival! You can pick your own fresh lavender, take a tour of their farming/processing operation, learn to make lavender gifts, listen to live music and shop in their brand new store.
Questions? Check out their website Prairie Lavender Farm or email Mike, he's one great guy! mike@prairielavenderfarm.com.

Wish I could travel. i love lavender!
I have been to Sequim during the summer when the lavender was in bloom. My timing for the festival was off. So I didn't make it. I would say go and see the lavender fields. It is wonderful!
Lovely, lovely lavender...my one plant is looking sad...it needs heat! Soon.
Lavender, peppermint, and eucalyptus really saved me the last two days. Got a nasty sunburn doing yard work. I used it neat and the combo totally took all the pain and burn away. Best thing I've ever used!
Bennington, KS is just a few miles from my home! I am already planning on going! If anyone else in the area is coming...let me know, I'd love to meet up!
