Lavender Valley, Hood River, Oregon
This lavender farm sits beneath the shade of two active volcanoes, Mount Hood and Mount Adams. The soil is vibrant and fertile, while the Hood River Valley contains a unique microclimate that’s simply perfect for growing lavender.
This particular farm has much more than lavender that visitors can see in bloom from the middle of June through July. And while here, you can buy fresh flowers, beauty products, lavender essential oil, lavender honey, and many other things.
There’s no charge to wander through the farm, and you can even put together a lovely lavender bouquet to take home for a small fee.
The area has much more to offer, though. You can visit the famous waterfalls in the Columbia River Gorge and try out windsurfing and many other water sports on the river.
