Yanchep Lavender Farm stands as the largest operational Lavender Farm in Perth. Here, the entire lavender cultivation process, from growth to harvest and distillation, takes place on-site.
The allure of the lavender fields is nothing short of breathtaking, offering a picturesque backdrop for unforgettable photographs. While the lavender is in full bloom from December to February, a visit to Yanchep Lavender Farm is a delightful experience throughout the year, especially now with the addition of their charming cafe and gift shop.
As you wander through the farm, a gentle breeze carries the soothing scent of lavender, creating a sensory experience unlike any other. This aromatic ambiance adds an extra layer of beauty to the already stunning surroundings.
During the flowering season, the lavender fields become a haven for busy bees. Although they may initially startle young visitors, rest assured they are wholly engrossed in their work and unlikely to disturb you. In the event of an unexpected encounter, a quick trip to the shop allows Gary or Karla to apply lavender hydrosol, soothing any discomfort.
The farm is also a sanctuary for butterflies, providing endless fascination for children and adults alike. Their vibrant presence adds a touch of enchantment to the already magical landscape.
Overlooking the sprawling lavender fields, the farm’s newly established cafe offers a truly divine experience. With a vast grassy area for children to play and the new nature-based playground, it’s a perfect spot for families. The playground features a wooden fort, perfect for imaginative play, with a rope ladder, stepping logs and two slides. But the standout feature of the playground is the eye-catching purple tractor!
The cafe menu boasts a diverse selection of delectable food and beverages, with the lavender-flavored ice cream and milkshakes being particular favourites. But I’ll definitely be booking their high tea for our next visit.
No visit to Yanchep Lavender Farm is complete without exploring their charming gift shop. Here, you’ll discover a wide array of lavender-infused products, including oils, soaps, melts, and beauty items. You can also purchase all products online.
Yanchep Lavender is free for everyone to visit. The gates are open Tuesday – Sunday from 10.30am. Professional photographers doing photoshoots need to contact Yanchep Lavender prior to booking appointments.
