sunshine3.jpgI haven’t visited many of the lavender farms this year…like many of you, I’m staying close to home.  However, on the way back from Seattle today, I stopped in at Sunshine Herb  and Lavender Farm.   Despite a very cool spring, things are looking great.  All of the farms are doing some last minute sprucing up in anticipation of the 12 annual lavender festival, July 17-20th.  If you are in the area…stop by.  It’s a feast for the eye and the nose.

 I went back and looked at last year’s post…and sure enough I took some of the same pictures.
