I have not been THIS excited to share an attraction with you. Why so? Well, it’s new, it’s fun, it’s educational and… it’s MINE!

Since March 2021 my family and I have been working really hard on creating California Lavender Honey Farm, a 10 acres farm in Paso Robles wine growing region of California, on the Central Coast. And now we are happy to offer you a highly educational and super fun California farm tour experience.

About Our Farm

We spent significant time growing, designing, building… But before we started creating this cool attraction we spent years visiting many farms, and when I say “many” I mean A LOT. We saw what other people are doing and asked ourselves: what’s missing? what can we do better so that you, our guests, have the best experience possible?

Our farm’s big passions are sustainability and organic practices. We grow plants that are destined to grow in our region, we engage in activities that support the environment and its inhabitants. Hence, our focus is on lavender (it LOVES this specific climate) and beekeeping. Our big mission is saving the bees and your visit to our California farm will help support it.

In addition we grow fruits, veggies and herbs that can be grown easily in our climate: tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, carrots, beets, basil, sage, oregano, rosemary, melons and watermelons. We also planted many fruit trees (pomegranates, peaches, apricots, cherries, among others) but we will have to wait a couple years until they bear fruit.

We also make beeswax products that are available for purchase at our California farm’s gift store.

California Lavender Honey Farm Tour

Finally we are ready to open our doors to welcome you all on our farm. We would like to invite you to participate in our family friendly 1.5 hour California farm tour that includes the following:

  1. Educational tour of the farm with a focus on sustainability, gardening and growing your own food. You will visit our fancy greenhouse, learn about our rain water collection system and much more – all of which we built ourselves, no outside help involved (hint: you can do it too in your garden!).
  2. A guided tour of the Bee Museum – a unique attraction the likes of which are not found anywhere else in California. Here you will learn about beekeeping and get inside look into the amazing world of bees as you have never seen it before. Some hands on activities included!
  3. A visit to our lavender field to learn about lavender with some fabulous photo opportunities
  4. Tasting of our delicious products: vegetables, fruits, herbs and honey – whatever is in season.
  5. An opportunity to buy our yummy and healthy produce (we don’t use any chemicals, pesticides, etc. – we have bees, we just can’t do that or else the bees will die)
  6. A stop at our gift store where you can get beautiful beeswax candles, honey and our miracle hand salve for dry, chapped skin that even helps with eczema (made from organic ingredients) – all of these items we make ourselves on our farm. We will have lavender bunches and lavender products in our gift store soon as well.
  7. Gorgeous photo opportunities: our farm is located among the rolling hills and vineyards and the views here are fabulous!

The tour price is $35 for adults, $15 for kids ages 5-15 and FREE for kids ages 0-4.

We usually do tours on weekends in the morning, by appointment. To learn more about the farm tour, please, check the farm tours page on our website.
