4 Amazing Hood River Lavender Farms

You don’t have to travel to the far-off lavender fields of Provence to see these magnificently fragrant purple blooms. There are plenty of lavender farms in the Pacific Northwest, including quite a few Hood River lavender farms in the Columbia River Gorge. The stunning blooms of this fragrant plant will soon be ready to explode with their signature purple spikes. Though it’s dependent on weather, you can expect Hood River Lavender farms to reach peak blooms sometime in early July.

As you visit these Hood River lavender farms, enjoy the gentle fragrance drifting through the air, take the time to pick your own bunches to take home, and shop for handmade or culinary goods featuring this signature fragrance. Many of the top Hood River lavender farms have gift shops onsite! Without further ado, here are the three best Hood River lavender farms to visit this summer:

  1. Exceptional views and bountiful lavender fields await at Hood River Lavender Farm, one of the most popular farms in the area. They have a wide variety of merchandise available in their retail shop, and you’re welcome to roam freely through their fields, soaking up the views and fragrances as you go.
  2. Sharing space with Hood River Lavender Farm is Stave and Stone Winery. Sipping locally-crafted wines and admiring beautiful lavender fields is a summer combo worth swooning over. This winery has an outdoor bar that overlooks its lavender fields, Mt. Hood, and Mount Adams.
  3. Enjoy the double mountain views of Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams towering beyond the vibrant purple fields at Hope Ranch Lavender Farm. You can walk through their fields, pick your own lavender, and shop from their farmstand.
  4. Lavender Valley Farms is nestled at the base of Mt. Hood. Though they have 15,000 plants, the real draw here is visiting the farm store. Visitors are welcome at the farm to pick up fresh flowers and a variety of products made from their products in June and July. It’s also a fabulous place to snap a picture of the beautiful lavender fields with Mt. Hood in the background.
