Handicap Accessibility

We have lavender, sheep, and trees in accessible places for folks to visit, all upon mostly level ground, pavement, or grass. Arrangements can be made for additional accessibility challenges. Please call or email ahead of time to discuss how we can accommodate your visit.

NO Dogs OR Pets

Lavender Hill Farm requires guests to leave pets at home. Service animals are welcome.

Service animals are defined as working animals trained to perform tasks for the benefit of individuals with physical or mental disabilities: guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, alerting and projecting people prone to seizures, or other tasks directly related to a disability. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the Americans with Disabilities Act. 

Photography

Personal photography is permitted on our property, be sure to tag us at #lavenderhillfarmberwick on our Instagram. Professional photographers please email inquiries.

Hazardous Weather Conditions

We will need to evacuate our fields if the weather becomes threatening or dangerous.  Please respect our judgment, we do this for safety reasons. We have a large structure that folks can gather if necessary. These kinds of sudden weather changes often pass quickly. You are welcome to return to the fields once the threat has passed.
