Every July, Sequim hosts the Lavender Festival of Washington. The timing of my visit didn’t coincide with the festival. Instead, I visited a local farm to see what it’s like. The lavender at Jardin du Soleil was so beautiful. The round bushy lavender plants were so cute, and I had no idea that there were so many varieties of lavender! I’m not sure what the red flowers are called – they added a beautiful contrast amongst the different purple-colored lavender hues. There’s also a delightful gift shop that sells lavender by the bunches and other lavender-infused products. There are some u-pick lavender farms too. Take a pick as Sequim is host to many lavender fields.
Jardin du Soleil: 3932 Sequim Dungeness Way, Sequim, Washington
For a bite to eat in Sequim, check out The Oak Table Cafe. This family-run restaurant makes delicious eggs benedict with potato pancakes, with applesauce and cream cheese side. My friend likes their apple pancakes.
