What Should I Bring to a Local Lavender Farm in Idaho?

Comfortable Shoes

This may seem like an odd idea, but many of our local lavender farms have uneven ground as they are “working farms” where the ground is relatively flat but may be uneven. You should come prepared with closed-toe shoes. Please don’t walk in areas that are not allowed at the farm. It is always best not to run or jump around the lavender plants or animals for your safety and the farm’s well-being.

Coolers

If you are buying refrigerated or frozen items, please come prepared with a cooler. There is nothing worse than buying cold items at a local farm and not having a way to keep it cool during your drive home.

Cash

As Dave Ramsey would say, cash is king! Remember that you will need a way to buy your goods from your local lavender farms. Many local farm stores are self-service and cash is the simplest form of payment where the farmer doesn’t need to pay service fees for selling items. Some local farms use electronic payment methods such as Venmo, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. Other farms may have access to a credit card machine.

Are Bees and Other Wildlife Present?

When you visit a local lavender farm in Idaho, please be aware that bees and other wildlife are likely present. Please follow the directions of the farmer for how you should address this, but we have found that bees and smaller wildlife like butterflies will typically leave you alone. Of course, if you have allergies to specific plants, animals, or seasonal allergens please come prepared.

When Are The Best Times to Visit Local Lavender Farms in Idaho?

Although the local lavender farm in Idaho may have specific times that they are open, we have found that some times in the season may be more optimal than others. For instance, to grab fresh lavender bundles, then you will want to shop during the Summer harvest (typically late June to August depending on the growing zone).

Please know that the price of some items may change depending on the season or may be adjusted based on the challenges of the growing conditions during a particular year.

We love getting to meet customers at our farm and it is not a surprise that farmer Nikki loves the same interaction with her customers.

From her website: “It’s the gasp of someone who discovers the row of flowers their grandmother used to grow. The exclamation of kids as they play dragons with the snapdragon petals. Connection from a group of friends have found over meeting at the farm and catching up. The fathers grumbling about being towed out to the flower farm — but they are the last ones to leave. It’s meeting the new mothers with their babies’ first outing. It’s hugging or crying with someone who just needs a break from stresses in life; to rest amongst the blooms. There are so many moments curated by this flower farm. I am forever grateful to have a front-row seat to them.”

We couldn’t agree more, Nikki. Consider stopping by this lavender farm in Idaho when you are in the area.

They had been debating names for what felt like forever, and it was getting close to their deadline! Bill called Wendy during a break, and asked Wendy again if she had any names she wanted to consider. She said she had not had time to think about.

Just then, she looked at a fresh wreath she had just made and placed on a red metal chair they’d had for a few years. In a stroke of genius, she said, “How about Red Chair Lavender?” They were instantly in agreement; the rest is history!” You can find all sorts of their lavender products from their Barn Store throughout the week. Go show them some love.

Likely the most famous lavender farm in America, Young Living Lavender Farm is located in St. Maries/Plummer Idaho.

Gary Young brought lavender seeds from Provence, France, and planted them on the 200 acres of land that would become this beautiful farm. Today, the St. Maries, Idaho-based Young Living farm contributes to the production of our famous Lavender essential oil and other aromatic plants. Gary first purchased the 160 acres that became the St. Maries Lavender Farm and Distillery in 1992, even before he founded Young Living. After clearing the native trees from the land, he planted Lavandula angustifolia seeds he had brought to the United States from France. Gary and Mary lived on the St. Maries Lavender Farm as he worked to establish the fields and build the distillery.”

If you are looking for a high-quality essential oil, you can find them at Young Living.
