Purple haze: My daughter and I loved the splashes of colour during our day trip to lavender farms
No shrinking violets here, my daughter and I wanted some purple power. Beautiful purple lavender in a field at Kelso Lavender. After a hectic few months, Kate and I went looking for some downtime with added panache among lavender farms. 'I wanted to go to the lavender farms because I wanted to get outside and enjoy the weather and nature in my surrounding communities,' Kate said. 'I love being able to explore new and hidden gems in the GTA for a day trip with friends or family. Plus, I love the colour purple, so why not?!' Our day trip took us to Kelso Lavender in Milton and then, closer to home, Lavender Polo Farm in East Gwillimbury. The lavender was in full bloom at Kelso, with the fields awash in deep purple. Kate and I were pleased to see items placed through the farm among the lavender plants. Perfect for taking photos to post on social media. A piano placed in a field at Kelso Lavender. Items placed through the fields are great for staging photos. Kate and I sit in a carriage among the lavender plants at Kelso Lavender. As Kate said, 'a Canadian classic of normal and huge Muskoka chairs, flower arches, a carriage and a magical garden. It was all very 'Insta-worthy.'' We grabbed a selfie in a large Muskoka chair at Kelso Lavender. Kelso is a family-run farm, established in 2017. Home to more than 25,000 lavender plants and counting, the family uses organic farming methods with no herbicides or pesticides. After pausing by what we called the magical garden, which is fenced off from entry, we headed to the small store. 'I loved the gift shop and some of the unique things they had for sale,' Kate said. 'I loved the mini hand-painted prints by a local artist, the dried bouquets and the potted plants. Being able to bring a piece home with you and support small Canadian businesses is always a plus!' In the shop, we also found lavender maple syrup, natural and handmade soaps and shampoo bars, eye and neck pillows filled with lavender and other items. We each had a lavender ice cream. We were a bit disappointed the ice cream came in little cups rather than cones but the creaminess of the sweet treat made up for it. Kate was able to have a lavender ice cream — lavender, lemon, berry, in fact — in a cone when we got to Polo Lavender. The farm's tag line is 'Where Lavender Dreams Bloom.' Lavender Polo Farm in East Gwillimbury welcomes visitors with a sign. The website goes on to say, 'Step into a world of soft petals, serene scents and unforgettable memories. Follow the scent, find tranquility. Your perfect countryside escape begins here.' The lavender wasn't as deeply purple as it was at Kelso the day we visited on July 11. The brutal winter caused the plants to flower later than normal but the subsequent days of blistering temperatures have done wonders to get the lavender to blossom, owner Arthur Lin said. Trips to lavender farms are blooming, he said. Many people already make yearly trips to berry, apple and pumpkin farms. More and more, people are adding lavender farms to their must-do lists, Lin said. Lavender Polo is a 155-acre family-run farm, home to more than 100,000 blooming lavender plants and a variety of seasonal flowers, making it the largest lavender farm in Ontario, he said. The farm is divided into different types of lavender plots — super blue, phenomenal, Munstead and Melissa. The farm is called Lavender Polo because the polo-loving family holds matches at the site, hosting a charity event every year. This year's Polo in the Lavender event on Aug. 16 will raise money for Feed Ontario, which manages food banks in Ontario. For more information, visit The farm boasts a coffee shop, workshops and a gift shop. Drinks at the coffee shop include lavender Americano, lavender latte, lavender tea, lavender mojito and green and purple grape tea. In addition to lavender ice cream, snacks include chicken nuggets, hot dogs, pizza, cookies and muffins. You can enjoy your treats inside the coffee shop, on the patio or at a row of picnic tables under the shade of nearby trees. The fountain at Lavender Polo is a good place to rest and take a photo. At the workshops, visitor can create their own healing oil at the lavender essence lab and make candles and perfume. The gift shop has an assortment of items for sale, including lavender bath bombs, lavender pillows, body sprays, foaming soaps and more. In coming days, the corn maze will be an added attraction. 'Some of the comments we get (from visitors about the farm) are the plants are beautiful, they like the atmosphere, they like the smell a lot. A lot of people come here to buy our essential oil for the purpose of the aroma,' Lin said. Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request. There was a problem with the recaptcha.
