The Lavender Connection

Our unique farm has over 30 varieties of lavender to view —  from light pink to dark purple — with most available for U-cut, making for truly unique lavender bundles. Our farm property also offers exceptional photo opportunities of multi-colored lavender fields and our recently renovated historic barn. We offer complimentary admission all summer long, even during Sequim Lavender Weekend. Visit our quaint store, located in the barn; our boutique products are handmade with lavender essential oil distilled from our own plants. Head to the copper still and watch as we distill the oil and learn about the different uses and kinds of lavender we grow, then stop by the “Essential Oil Bar” to smell many varieties of lavender essential oil, all available for sale. We offer lawn games such as bocce ball and cornhole (for kids and adults), as well as benches and picnic tables throughout the property. We invite you to bring a picnic, a good book, or just your camera, and stay all afternoon!

Visited first thing Sunday morning and met the owners. Fabulous people and the lavender grows are titled so you know the different varieties. This is a family operation and everything is homemade. Great products will definitely come back.

Graysmarsh Berry Farm

Reviewed By Asheley - University Place, United States

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this farm. We were seeking a lavender farm and were pleasantly surprised to find berries to pick as well. The blueberries and blackberries were available during our visit. After picking berries, we crossed the field to cut two bundles of lavender. The farm was easily accessible, and staff was friendly. We would gladly visit again.

This was our 2nd visit to this farm on our 2nd ever lavender tour. We both like this place. We liked it last time. There is excellent parking and parking and farm entrance are free. The fields are available for walking. There are some resident critters, including goats. Typically special events are held here. Not so this year due to COVID-19. The gift shop is nice. Despite the tourist prices, I did purchase several items. Gift shop staff was very nice. They have a u cut for the lavender. I liked that ! For $5 you can wander the u cut fields. They provide a twist tie to hold what you cut. The size of your bouquet is determined by how much the twist tie will hold. Scissors are provided. The sunshine and fresh air are free! COVI-19 protocols are in place. There are some places to sit and some shade trees if needed or wanted.

The farm is a quaint, and a beautiful spot. Although the lavender wasn't blooming, there were flowers around the property and a garden in the back. We saw a few animals while roaming around. The bees were very busy pollinating the flowers. If you are interested in buying any of the lavender products from the farm, the shop is only a few miles from the farm in town. I am jealous of the rest of you who might get to see the lavender in full bloom. Enjoy! The people I spoke to on the phone were lovely!

Dungeness River Audubon Center

Reviewed By paulwE9629HL

We loved the Audubon Center. The staff is so friendly, and love to teach visitors about the area's animals, plants, animal habitat, and history of the area. Before visiting the center, I never realized that flying squirrels lived in WA state! The displays are amazing. The pristine Dungeness river lies a stone's throw from the center, as well as the amazing Olympic Discovery Trail, where anyone may walk, jog, run, ride horses, or ride bicycles...all free of charge! Great place for the kids too. Sequim seems like one of the few remaining unspoiled areas in Western WA.
