16th SEQUIM LAVENDER FESTIVAL
FREE or FEE. You decide, now or later. The Lavender Capital of North America, founded by the members of the Sequim Lavender Growers Association, is the WEEKEND DESTINATION for you, your friends, and pets to the original and #1 lavender festival event in Sequim, Washington and the surrounding rural Sequim-Dungeness Valley.
This three-day weekend in mid-July is the beginning of the lavender harvest season. There is nothing like it anywhere to stimulate the senses and imagination than the fragrance and presence of lavender in the field.
This lavender-themed event consists of a high end juried street fair consisting of all forms of art techniques and media, photography, pottery, metalwork, leatherwork, carvings, jewelry, fibers and precious minerals and rocks.
THE FOUNDERS AND CREATORS OF THE #1 SEQUIM LAVENDER FESTIVAL WILL OFFER ORIGINAL HAND-CRAFTED GIFTS AND PERSONAL CARE ITEMS PRODUCED FROM THEIR SEQUIM LAVENDER HARVEST AT THEIR ATTRACTIVE VENDOR BOOTHS ALL THREE DAYS. PLENTY OF TIME TO ATTEND THE STREET FAIR, ENJOY THE MUSIC AND CAR SHOW AND VISIT THE FREE FARMS AND OTHER REGIONAL ATTRACTIONS. YOUR SCHEDULE, YOUR INTERESTS, HASSLE FREE & FREE!!!!
There is nothing lacking for the discerning appetite, vegan or hot dog lover at our food court and beer and wine garden with signature offerings. We'll serve BBQ, lavender ice cream, crab cakes and salmon, pizza, Greek food and Thai, coffee and freshly made crepes. These foodies were selected to be part of our festival for their menus, customer satisfaction and friendliness to all of our visitors. All of this is surrounded by continuous live music from Northwest bands and ensembles.
Popular lavender farms that make this FREE event possible will be open for your imagination and enjoyment. Gifts and personal care items for people and pets and, of course, lavender in all of its features and forms will be available for purchase. PETS ARE PEOPLE ALSO.
