Hello Lavender Fans!
Welcome to week two of the Lavender Digest, your one stop shop for news about Hitchin Lavender. We will be looking at the week just gone, but first I will give you some information about the farm for next week.
Next week… (7/7/2017 – 13/7/2017)
How will the Lavender be looking?
We are one more week closer to being in full bloom. Our display area is still looking absolutely magnificent. With 60 different varieties of lavender, it really is a sight to behold! The main field is looking great and is about 80-90% of the way to being in full bloom. See picture below (taken 5/7/17)
Sunflowers?
No, not yet. Mid August.
How busy will it be this weekend?
I think from now on it will be safe to suggest that every weekend will be busy, just as long as it’s not raining. Forecast says it should be clear all weekend (though it was majorly wrong last week!) – so expect queues. Just as a word to the wise, we do allow picnics on the main field, for those who don’t fancy waiting for food!
And in the week?
We are still relatively quiet at the moment, as the schools haven’t broken up yet. So if you have the option to come on a weekday, or weeknight on Tuesdays and Fridays (we are open till 9) I’d go for it.
What’s on?

Oh nothing much… Other than we only picked up an award! Thanks so much to Muddy Stiletto for that nod, we won for ‘Best Family Attraction!’ More info to follow!
Not quite as jam packed this week – in terms of new and exciting events. However, we have been super busy as more and more people come to visit our place.
