This week's walk in Kent took me close to the lavender fields. They are at their best at the beginning of July so I just about made it before they are harvested.
Every cottage I passed seemed to have Lavender in full bloom.

Oh my, I love the view of the lavender fields. What a lovely color, the scent is my favorite. I like a sachet filled with lavender. Beautiful views and photos. Take care! Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy new week!
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it in time. Lavender fields forever … rows and rows of what could not be more stunning eye-candy in an open field. The aroma must have been something, too!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful! Thank you for the lovely lavender fields forever! :-)
ReplyDeleteDon't bees just love lavender.
ReplyDeleteWe planted more lavender pots at weekend. It's meant to keep the cats at bay but even if it doesn't I know the bees love it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know lavender was planted in the UK, I have seen the fields in France once some time ago. It is impressive to see and smell them.
ReplyDeleteMust smell heavenly around there. got you message but I'm sorry I managed to delete it. To answer it I think it would be a while before I was self sufficient though during the summer it does help out to have fresh grown produce
ReplyDeleteWasn't there a painting program that was taped right there? I seem to remember those fields from somewhere and it wasn't France!
ReplyDeleteLove the lavender fields ~ great photos ^_^

I have lavender in my garden and I love the smell and watching the bees.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to see and enjoy the lavender fields, I liked your photographs.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
What a wonderful sight to see and smell. I love lavender! I have small shrubs of it growing in my yards and I like collecting the lowers to make sachets.
ReplyDeleteOh, what a beautiful sight!
ReplyDeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. I can only imagine the aroma!
ReplyDeleteOh gorgeous! I swear I can almost catch the wonderful scent. We visited some lavender farms near here a couple of years ago ... I loved the experience. (Of course we had to drive there being the wimps we are ... it was about 40 miles away, in our defense.). I hadn’t even realized until then that lavender is actually a cas crop in this area!
