My wife and I stopped in the shop and my wife bought some gifts for friends and a few things for herself. We would have liked to go to the farm but settled for the shop. The owner was pleasant and personable and we enjoyed the store.

This small lavender farm is a fun stop. They have a small lavender labyrinth that we walked while we ate our ice cream. Try the chocolate chardonnay lavender ice cream. It sounds disgusting but it tastes great, and it's only available here. There are a lot of lavender products available for purchase in the store, with lavender drying over your head. Not as big a farm as some near Sequim, but the ice cream is better here!

We visited the Lavender Wind Farm on the opening day in June. Fields were carpeted in purple and our little kids ran and played up and down the rows, making for some great photos. Bought the sweetest lavender teddy in the shop along with lotions and oils made from lavender harvested on the farm. Great day trip!

We visited this lavender farm on June 15, the people were nice but I was extremely disappointed. This farm required we make an online reservation which we did, cost was $14 ($7 per person). We got there and not much was in bloom yet, the labyrinth had plants that were small, maybe 9” tall, no blooms and the bed was full of weeds. They were in the process of pulling the weeds so I’m sure it’ll get better. Another area had about 8 or so rows of lavender that was in bloom but that was it. Didn’t see an employee to complain to when leaving. We went to the store in town and complained about having to pay when so much of the lavender wasn’t in bloom, reply I received was “it’s still beautiful there with the other plants in bloom”. I don’t recall other plants in bloom but that’s probably because I was there to see lavender. Definitely will not go back as I don’t feel we should have been charged to look at weeds. A discount wasn’t even offered on my purchase.
Visited a lavender farm in Arlington, they didn’t charge me to walk around when the lavender wasn’t in bloom, there were no weeds and the property was gorgeous. I’ll go to the Arlington one next time I’m in the area.

The address showed in TripAdvisor is the shop only, I planned to see the Lavender Farm but it turns out a shop only. Chat with the owner, the farm will only open in June-August, better to show this information or at least advise people to check the opening hours before heading to the "Farm".

My wife and I recently traveled to the town of Coupeville, WA on Whidbey Island for their annual Mussel Festival. It was a relaxing and fun weekend that was hampered briefly when we stopped by the Lavender Wind Farm shop in downtown Coupeville.
Immediately when we walked through the door I developed a bad impression of the place. Employees were running about, it was cramped, and the overall atmosphere was not at all relaxed. This did not bode well for a product that is meant to help provide calm and serenity. Nonetheless, it was a festival weekend in the town of Coupeville, so I quickly moved passed the hectic nature of the shop.
However, we noted extreme tension between the employees working that day. All of these employees treated us and other customers very well, but their interactions with one another made me feel quite awkward TO SAY THE LEAST.
The uneasiness created from these tensions caused me not want to purchase anything in the shop, but my wife did want to try a few products, so we purchased several different items that I found to be excessively expensive given the poor quality we have observed now that we have had an opportunity to try them.
Most notable has been:
the bubble bath that doesn't bubble
the bath salts that don't dissolve but leaves a residue at the bottom of the tub
the bath oil that really doesn't smell much, and just floats on top of the water
And a neck warmer filled with lavender that doesn't smell at all
Moreover, the packaging for these items is cheap. We purchased some liquid hand soap, the sort that foams, and the dispenser doesn't dispense the soap.
My wife and I are both disappointed with our purchases with the exception of two items.
We are both enjoying the teas and the chapstick, which are well made and worth the money.
Caveat Emptor: I really would not recommend this place to anyone based on the quality of the products and the overall awkwardness of the buying experience.
To give a sense of how poor an experience this was for me, I am not normally one to write reviews, but this particular experience has been extreme enough that I joined Trip Advisor just to warn others.

This is a difficult review to respond to. Not because it’s negative, we have had negative ones occasionally and, in general, we welcome the critique that a negative review offers us. We can look at our company, how we perform, and make changes that will better the experience for our customers and for us. But, the original version of this review that was written earlier and taken down by Trip Advisor due to aspects that did not meet their criteria, which we think one of which was that it threatened bodily harm. This is a version that has been corrected, and now we assume it meets Trip Advisor’s criteria of an acceptable review. However, you can imagine our concern after reading the first version. Due to some events in the company and some facts in the review, there is enough reason to doubt the validity of the review that we had to think it through carefully. In spite of our doubts, we have decided to respond as if it was a legitimate complaint at the same time let you, our dear current or future customers, know that we take your satisfaction very seriously.
We strive to keep our products and our service as high quality as we can. We are deeply concerned that you didn’t find our service and our products to your satisfaction. As we provide to all of our customers, if you have been dissatisfied with a product we will cheerfully refund your money. We don’t want you to be unhappy! We are a little mystified as to why you have not contacted us to request a refund, but it’s not too late. Just contact us with the receipt and/or return the product you don’t want as well as a name and address to which we can send the refund and we’ll do it. No problem.
As to the hectic nature inside the store the weekend you were here, that is true. Our staff was racing to serve the hundreds of people who were coming through the door. We are located in a tourist area and that weekend was one of the biggest festivals of the year. The town of normally around 1,800 was bulging with 6,000 visitors all wanting to enjoy the festival and shop at all our shops. We apologize if the service wasn’t to your standard and our shop was crowded, but that is the nature of being in a tourist town on a festival weekend.
We wish you, the writer of this review, the best and that you can find a peaceful solution to your issue. We are here to help with our part.

What a beautiful farm! We chose to go out to Lavender Wind because they have a "lavender labyrinth" which was fun to walk through. The lavender was mostly harvested by the time we were there (Labor Day weekend), so I'd recommend going earlier in the summer. The grounds of the farm are beautiful, and the family's garden was amazing to look at too if you're a veggie aficionado. Lots of cute gifts for sale, although the store in town had a larger selection & a bakery on site!

We didn't get a chance to visit the farm but our visit to the store was just great! The service was great and the products were awesome! They bake items onsite, pre packed for sale, and even contract with local dairy for delicious ice cream bars. Highly recommend the cardamom lavender dipped in choc- to die for!

There are a great many lavender farms in the Northwest, and many of those farms are quite good, but none of them are quite as good as Lavender Wind.
All of the lavender farms I have visited in this area claim to be local, claim to be organic and claim to be community oriented. To a certain degree this is true, but not in the same way as it is with Lavender Wind.
The farm is not even six miles from the shop. All the employees are local, sit on community boards, participate in gardening clubs and buy local themselves.
The store offers classes, baked goods, bath products, gardening products and more... it is the widest array I have seen.
It's just good people doing good work to create a quality product.
If you like this sort of thing and want to support American made quality products, as well as local business and agriculture... this is a place to buy some stuff at... oh, and they support the American Military as well!!!
Thank you Lavender Wind.

The lavender plants we have for sale vary by availability. We usually have the more popular ones in, except for Folgate for which we have a hard time keeping up with the demand. We have some varieties for sale that we don't grow commercially because they are excellent garden plants, but they might not fit our commercial production needs.

When is the best time to see the lavender fields. We are going to be up north and wondered if there is anything to see this month?

Hi! The best time to see lavender blooming is during the summer. We grow 14 varieties, and the earliest start around mid-June, and the rest bloom during the summer, ending sometime towards the end of August. April is sometimes nice here, sometimes not, there are other flowers in the area, so it's a great place to visit even if the lavender isn't blooming.
