Description
Castle Farm is a family run lavender farm in North Kent, England. I took a series of pictures in July before the harvest. Then they extract pure Kentish Lavender Oil which is sold in their shop, The Hop Shop, along with other farm products including their own beef, apples, apple juice, pumpkin and much else.
"Rolling purple rows of fragrant flowers greet your senses at this popular Kent lavender farm, which opens for picnics in July (bookings from late June) when its unique Ladybird Lavender variety is in bloom. Book your space and bring your own picnic, but leave some room in the hamper for treats from the farm market stall, which offers fresh seasonal fruit, lavender ice cream and a lavender gin cocktail, among other things."
