Visit Sequim for Sequim Lavender Festival 2008

It's time to talk the talk about Sequim, it's lavender fields and the Sequim Lavender Festival. The 12th Annual Sequim Lavender Festival, the biggest highlight for our small town Sequim, is quickly approaching. It will take place July 18 - 20. When we were picking strawberries at the Cameron strawberry fields, this Japanese couple talked to us and asked us where they could see some lavender? Well, we said it's all around you, as there is hardly any private garden which does not grow at least a few bushes of lavender. Our own lavender bushes at home are in full bloom. We noticed though that lavender farms grow a later kind, which is also grown at the entrance to Carrie Blake Park.

Despite the cooler weather this spring, the lavender farm growers believe that their fields will be in full bloom by the festival. Everybody in Sequim who is in the lavender business is getting business ready for thousands of visitors, tending to their lavender fields and filling up their stores with their own lavender products.

Lavender Farm Tour tickets cost $15 for adults (children age 12 and under are free) and allow you admission to eight lavender farms for all three days of the festival with unlimited use of the farm tour buses.You can buy tickets at the Sequim-Dungeness Chamber of Commerce 1192 E. You may also go shopping at the online Lavender Store offering beautiful lavender posters, calendars and even a Lavender Festival Dinner by Cedar Creek restaurant.
