Stroll through rows of lavender and learn how this incredible plant is grown, harvested, and used for wellness, crafts, and cooking. Explore English lavender (Lavendula Angustifolia) known for its culinary value, and discover how lavender is dried and prepared for everyday use. You will pick your own small bundle of lavender to take home, while enjoying the natural beauty of the Arroyo Seco area of South Monterey County. Your time at the farm will include instruction on how to prune lavender each year, incorporate lavender into recipes, and a live lavender syrup preparation and taste testing. After the tour, you will have time to relax outdoors and enjoy your bring-your-own picnic down by the creek, covered by a cooling canopy of oak trees. Bring your camera! The blooming fields offer serene and vibrant photos you’ll want to share.

This is a sunny farm stand experience so please bring sunscreen, hats, closed toe shoes,water, and your picnic!

Notice

Please read:  Remember to bring your picnic lunch and a blanket if you'd like to sit on the ground, in true picnic style! There will be picnic tables available. Bring your camera or phone! The blooming fields offer the perfect backdrop for serene and vibrant photos you’ll want to share. Lavender Creek is located at 45217 E. Carmel Valley Road, Greenfield CA 93927. The easiest way to reach us is to travel down the 101 and exit Arroyo Seco Road just after Soledad. From there you will follow the Arroyo Seco River and enjoy beautiful scenery before turning right onto E. Carmel Valley Road. The most important part about getting to us is that Waze/Google Maps might end the trip before reaching us, because there's no cell service, but you can't miss us if you keep heading down Carmel Valley Rd. Just look for the purple umbrellas and lavender!
