Lavender is in season, and a local farm is hosting an event to share that season.

Hope Haven Family Farm is holding its annual Oregon Lavender Association Lavender Festival and Farm Tour, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, July 8-9, 8875 SE Robert Lane, Aumsville, (just south of town off West Stayton/Little roads). The tour is part of a broader Oregon Lavender Association statewide event held annually on the second weekend in July.

Hope Haven welcome’s visitors to enjoy a walk through the lavender, which provides unique photo opportunities. Visitors will also learn about lavender and have the opportunity to cut some lavender, visit with the alpacas and other animals, create crafts, purchase plants or bouquets, visit the vendors and the Barn Store and enjoy refreshments.

The event is family friendly and free. Visit Hope Haven Family Farm on Facebook.
