the lavender connection

As we were about to head out of town we wanted to find a Lavender place and were lucky enough for it to be this one! It's a beautiful setting, with barn, woods, fields around. Not too small but not big-business feeling. Heavenly.And they were so nice!! We came in with our 5 (!) small kids and they were nothing but gracious, welcoming hosts. They took our picture, spent time talking and teaching us things, were good to our kids.The Lavender smell is, of course, to die for (we came at the right time of year) but also there is an adorable little gift shop in a rustic barn with really cool stuff made from lavender - we got some lotion and I kid you not, it's the most potent, incredibly good smelling lotion I've ever smelled. not to be missed!!! THANK YOU CreekSide Lavender Farm! :)

Happened to be Sequim at the Lavender Festival. What a great time. Everything Lavender. We were there to visit the Olympic National Forest.

This was a very small farm. They had a very small store but it was very nice. What they had in the store was very competitive on their prices. Hope to see this place grow in the future.

We came here as part of the Sequim Lavender Festival. Every lavender farm we went to this day only had one type of Lavender, and basically are there to sell you bundles of lavender. They aren't there to teach you about Lavender and show you the possibilities of lavender. The Lavender Connection does. It's a true lavender farm that not only has more than one type of lavender (which all the other farms only had the one kind; Grosso) but they also labeled them so you could see the different types and how they were different from each other. They also labeled for culinary use, fragrance, and planting uses. They also had bees which benefited from all the different lavenders and that was very interesting too. They had a still in the barn where they gave a talk on how they distill their lavender for their products which they sell at a good prices in their small store. All in all, this farm is the best one we went to and we went to them all. This was truly a learning experience as opposed to a business who is just trying to get you to buy stuff. I highly recommend this farm out of all of them if you want to truly learn about the different types of lavender. The only thing they could've improved on was their nursery. They didn't sell most of the types of lavender they have and the plants they did have for sale weren't worth the money they were asking for them. Still, all in all, the best lavender farm in Sequim.

This farm is really something special. We were there on the last day of this year's lavender festival and were so glad we went. There was lots to so, but we never felt rushed. We were able to see (and walk through) something like 20 different varieties of lavender, cut a huge bundle of whichever varieties we chose, watch the distilling of oil and hydrosol from freah cut lavender, take pictures, shop their well stocked store of handcrafted lavender items, "invent a scent" from easential oils and a lavender base, and enjoy a few fresh cherries just picked from their own trees (they just did that as a nicety,.it's not part of the festival) and eat the snack we brought with us on their shades picnic benches. It was just a really nice way to spend a day. I was happy to learn I can buy their products on line from home at "The Lavender Connection.com"

We have been going to the lavender festival the last 5+ years. Our favorite lavender farm is The Lavender Connection! Everyone is everyone is friendly and welcoming. Gift shop prices are reasonable. We enjoy doing the u-cut bundle of lavender and buying lavender buy the scoop. They even had someone showing you how to make the lavender wands. We'll be back next year ;)

We went to the lavender connection today and had a wonderful time. While my husband learned about distilling the oils from the dad, one of their daughters helped me created my own perfume mist from a selection of oils. They were even getting visitors input on what new varieties to plant next year. The prices were great, the products were well made, and the owners were very welcoming and knowledgable. I plan to visit this farm instead of the bigger ones moving forward.

We were charmed by the welcoming atmosphere of this "Mom & Pop" farm. The farm itself has an impressive selection of lavender varieties to select from. We enjoyed walking among the rows of lavender with the basket and sheers provided to us and clipping and comparing the different buds. "Pop" himself was actually distilling lavender oil while we were there and was happy to explain the process. We found "Mom" manning the shop located on site inside the barn, where she offered friendly assistance with their many house-made products. I promised myself I would only get one item, and purchased the body moisturizer. I'm now regretting not picking up more - the quality and fragrance of the product is that good!

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience visiting the Lavender Connection. We were treated with tremendously warm hospitality. The lavender was beautiful and the setting was ideal. A perfect day!

The farm is lovely and peaceful..not to mention free of charge. You can pick your own bunch of lavender for very little money, and the owners are incredibly sweet and friendly. The lip balm is amazing!!!

In visiting Sequim, I found the place to be the capital of North America for lavenders. We did not get to see this lavender farm until at 5:30PM, but the owner made us feel very welcome and took the time to explain the lavender oil distillation process to my family, and even let us smell the different by-products and the oil he just made after 3.5 hours. His wife in the Corner Store also patiently gave us different sample product experiences even though it was closing time.I bought the wonderful body oil and the essence oil bottles. I found the genuine products to be very reasonably priced too!I am a dentist with dry hands from the daily use of the multiple gloves and hand washings; but after only two days with the body oil, my hands are now feeling soft and not dry anymore! This product sure outperform my professional hand care lotion!!If you visit Sequim, this is one of the must visit lavender farm!

Free of charge, u pick your bunch for $5, very friendly and welcoming!

After getting told to pay at Purple Haze to visit this farm $15.00 per person which would of been well over a hundred dollars and noone to complain to because they were to busy to talk to little old me. BUT we stumbled upon Lavender Connection and these people were incredible... Much better Lavender DIDNT HAVE TO PAY TO VISIT. Every one was so nice and friendly... I suggest anyone to come here and visit if your in the area...
