Scent, Beauty, Life With Lavender: Fort Hill Farms & Gardens
Fort Hill Farms & Gardens in Thompson, Connecticut, will be celebrating lavender in all forms over the third weekend in June.
Home to one of New England’s largest lavender gardens, the farm has a weekend planned with lavender-centered activities and other family-friendly activities.
“Our gardens have more 1,500 organic lavender plants that will be in full bloom over the festival weekend,” says Kristin Orr, co-owner of Fort Hill Farms. “Anyone looking for a relaxing and intoxicating daytrip will enjoy strolling through the gardens. Lavender has been enjoyed for centuries for its fragrance, as well as its medicinal benefits and, more recently, for its culinary applications.”
