  • This class is held during the warmer months and continues long after the lavender bloom. While we are at the mercy of Mother Nature, as she determines when various cultivars begin to bloom and how long those blooms will last. Our English cultivars are typically the first to start blooming in early June, followed by our French cultivars in late June/early July. The peak bloom is typically the third and fourth weeks of June, lasting into the first two weeks of July, with variations from season to season. Check our Instagram or Facebook for Lavender Field Status updates in season.

  • This class is RAIN OR SHINE. In the case of rain we move the class into the owl’s nest in the large barn.

  • As we are limiting the number of participants in the class, we regret that the reservation fee is non-refundable. Please check the date and time carefully when purchasing. If you must cancel please let us know ASAP and if we find someone to take your reservation, we are happy to offer you a credit to a future event at the farm.

Hilltop programming runs while the weather permits, pre and post bloom. Here is a view when the lavender is not blooming. Consult the Bloom section above for peak bloom times.

Class will be held here, in the Owls Nest, in the event of rain or other unfavorable weather conditions.
