When we went it was late June, so the lavender flowers were not yet in full bloom.

It was my first time in the lavender fields, so I didn’t know 100% what to expect either. The only thing that surprised me was that I thought the plants would be much taller than they really were.

Our visit lasted about 2 hours, although it is true that the lavender field is small and can be visited in half an hour. During the tour there are several photo spots to get the best souvenir photo of your visit to Mayfield Lavender Farm.
