Many of the lavender fields on the Old Mission Peninsula have already been harvested, but I can’t let the summer get away from me without posting some photos of these stunning herbs.
These photos were taken at the corner of Center Road and Blue Water Road, and they belong to Brys Estate Vineyard and Winery. They sell a multitude of lavender products in their retail gift shop, Secret Garden at Brys Estate.
