I recall FatCat as being a very friendly farm, with many people hanging out in lawn chairs, music playing. FatCat also has chickens, and some animals, a pond, and, yes, they have lots of lavender and a gift shop.

Meli's Lavender is a small field of lavender as compared with the larger farms, but they offer visitors an “Instagrammable” frame (at least they did during the Sequim Lavender Festival).

I visited this farm during the lavender festival. Please check as they may not currently be open, but we have this marker on the map just in case as their fields were lovely.

Blackberry Forest had only a few booths open when I was there early in the morning, but their well-groomed lavender fields are very picturesque. I want to sneak back in during the golden hour to try my hand at portraits here sometime!

Nelson's Duckpond offers a tranquil spot to sit and gaze at the feature that gave this farm its name. Across the pond, a large, friendly red barn offers additional charm. If you're there during the festival, look for Tilly's Lavender Lemonade stand.

They also have lodging there if you need a place to stay while you're in Sequim.

Kitty B’s Lavender Farm was one of the most photogenic of the farms I visited during the Sequim Lavender Festival — and lavender seems to be intrinsically photogenic.

From a white picket fence and a cruiser bike with a basket full of purple blooms to the large barn to a picture-perfect gazebo, there are plenty of photo opportunities here.
