Approaching Lavender

Approaching lavender (summer) at Akaroa Lavender farm

Kia ora koutou

Approaching our lavender fields at this time of year is always exciting. The end of winter is in sight so the first very faint tinges of green shoots are starting to appear on our Grosso and Pacific Blue.

The end of July marks the beginning of lavender season for us. The weeds start to grow with the increase in temperatures so with the help of our international team of woofers it is all hands (and knees) on deck as we start hand weeding.

Need to kick some winter blues> Check out Gordon Lightfoots song that reminds us all of lazy and purple filled summer days!

We anticipate re-opening the lavender farm for seasonal tours around mid November. Join us on a guided tour at Akaroa Lavender farm from November through to the end of February.
