Heya!

I hope you are all okay; today’s post is going to be about my visit to the Hitchin Lavender fields.

The Hitchin lavender fields are located in Hitchin (obviously). There is a whole meadow of lavender and also when I went there was also a huge patch of sunflowers and things like wild flowers.

There is also a café on site where you can sit and relax or plenty of picnic areas also if you want to bring something of your own. As well as being able to buy lavender from the shop there you can also pick your own.

For around £4 you are given a large brown bag and some cutting sheers/scissors so you can pick your lavender. There is also a trail you can follow if you don’t want to go picking and want to have a nice dog walk in the sun or something like that.

The Lavender is set out in a meadow on a slight hill and there are actually different varieties of lavender on display. It was actually sooo pretty and I really loved it!

After walking through the lavender and taking a lot of pictures we went over to see the sunflowers. They were huge! They were so pretty and I brought one to take home for 50p which is now sitting pride of place in a vase of water in our kitchen.

After having a walk through the fields it was time to find some shade and have our picnic. We had a browse in the shop before heading home.

It was a lovely day and a great activity for the summer. I hope you enjoyed reading about it!

Thank you
