The farm also sells many products based on the lavender it produces, from lavender scented candles and soap to lavender flavoured drinks and ice cream.<\/p>\n

Since we were with the elder and can’t walk far and there is no other transportation option, so we just stroll around and then continue to Farm Tomita.<\/p>\n

The popular farm is free to enter and besides the flower fields has cafes and shops that sell a wide range of lavender related products. The farm naturally gets rather busy during the peak season from July to early August.<\/p>\n
