Lavender in the Village Festival7th Annual Lavender in the Village Festival Saturday, June 26th and Sunday, June 27th, 8am to 4pm. Click here: FESTIVAL MAP to see a full list of participants and schedule of events. Admission - Adults $3, Kids $2, Under 10 Free Please note the change in date for our Lavender Festival. Typically held the weekend after the 4th of July, we have decided with the Village of Los Ranchos to hold the festival earlier this year. The Lavender has been blooming earlier every year, and we feel that June will be the ideal time to harvest. This year we are keeping our focus on sustainable food, agriculture and educational activities. We are proud to be a part of this important community event. Please join us to learn about lavender and sustainable agriculture, make your own lavender crafts, meet regional farmers and artisans and have fun!
