2025 Helvetia Lavender Festival
Spend your day surrounded by the sight and smell of lavender. Lavender is a great backdrop for selfies with your friends or simply a calming landscape to observe the blooms. On top of the beauty of the flowers, you can partake in all the festival has to offer.
Activities at the festival include cutting your own lavender, watching lavender distillation workshops and wreath demonstrations, playing at the kids stations, perusing more than 30 local artisan vendors and listening to live music.
If you’re interested in cutting your own bundle of lavender, the farm provides baskets, scissors and twist ties. The cost is $8 per bundle. You can also buy a bundle of pre-cut lavender for $12. You-cut and pre-cut lavender is available during the festival as well as June 28-29.
Food items are also available for purchase.
