The Sequim Lavender Festival comes every July. This year there were two Lavender Festivals. There is the Sequim Lavender Grower’s Association, which sponsors the Sequim Lavender Festival, and there is a new association called The Sequim Lavender Farmer’s Association, which sponsors the Sequim Lavender Farmer’s Faire.

Sequim is the Lavender Capital of North America, and the festival brings thousands from outside the area, including people who fly in from all over the country. Lavender is a serious business, and Lavender is a fun business, too.

The Sequim Lavender Festival included Lavender Central, a downtown Sequim street fair and food court. They also had a free self-guided tour of seven lavender farms. The Sequim Lavender Farm Faire had a bus tour of six more lavender farms. They also had an event called “Lavender in the Park,” a street fair at Carrie Blake Park.

The Sequim Lavender Farmer’s Faire was sponsored by Cedarbrook Lavender & Herb Farm, Olympic Lavender Farm, Port Williams Lavender, Purple Haze Lavender, Sunshine Herb & Lavender Farm and Washington Lavender.

The Sequim Lavender Festival was sponsored by Blackberry Forest, Martha Lane Lavender, Oliver’s Lavender Farm, Nelson’s Duck Pond & Lavender Farm, Lost Mountain Lavender, Peninsula Nurseries and The Lavender Connection.
