Spring is here on the Central Coast, and while our lavender fields are waking up from their winter rest, we’re excited to bring the fragrance and charm of Santa Rita Hills Lavender Farm out into the community. Throughout April 2026, you can find us at several local markets and events across Santa Barbara County.
These events are a great opportunity to experience our handcrafted lavender products, learn more about our farm, and take home a little piece of the Santa Rita Hills.
Below is our April 2026 event calendar so you know where to find us.
Buellton Farmers Market
Every Monday in April 2026
3:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Join us every Monday afternoon at the Buellton Farmers Market, where you can shop local produce, artisan foods, and handcrafted goods while enjoying the relaxed atmosphere of the Santa Ynez Valley.
Stop by our booth to browse some of our most popular lavender products including:
Lavender essential oil
Lavender body care products
Culinary lavender treats and ingredients
Farm-inspired gift items
It’s also a great chance to ask questions about the farm, learn about the upcoming lavender bloom season, and hear about the events we have planned for summer.
The Buellton Farmers Market is a wonderful weekly gathering of local farmers, makers, and food vendors, and we always enjoy connecting with visitors and locals alike.
Isla Vista Farmers Market

We’ll be making a special appearance at the Isla Vista Farmers Market, a vibrant community market located near UC Santa Barbara.
This lively market attracts students, residents, and visitors looking for fresh produce and unique artisan goods. If you’re in the area, stop by to discover the calming scent of lavender and explore products straight from our small family farm.

Solvang Brick & Build

10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
We’re excited to participate in Solvang Brick & Build, a family-friendly event that brings together creativity, building, and hands-on fun in the charming Danish village of Solvang.
While the event celebrates building and imagination, visitors will also find a variety of local artisans and specialty vendors throughout the weekend.
Be sure to stop by our booth to explore our lavender products and learn more about our regenerative farming practices in the Santa Rita Hills.
It’s a perfect event for families, builders, and anyone looking to enjoy a fun weekend in Solvang.
Gaia’s Makers Market
10:00 AM – 5:00 PM
We’ll also be joining Gaia’s Makers Market, a curated market celebrating local artisans, handcrafted goods, and small businesses.
This event is all about creativity, community, and supporting local makers. At our booth, you’ll find a selection of our lavender-inspired products made right here at Santa Rita Hills Lavender Farm.
Markets like this are a great way for us to meet people who appreciate handcrafted, small-batch products and sustainable farming practices.
Visit the Farm This Summer
While we love bringing our products to local markets, the best way to experience Santa Rita Hills Lavender Farm is to visit us during lavender bloom season, which typically runs from late May through mid-July.
Our lavender fields burst into color, and visitors can enjoy:
Acres of lavender in bloom
Farm-made lavender products
Relaxing picnic areas under the oak trees
Lawn games and farm animals
Seasonal farm events and workshops
Follow Along for Updates
Be sure to follow us on social media for bloom updates, farm events, and behind-the-scenes glimpses of life on the farm.
And if you see our booth at one of these markets in April, please stop by and say hello — we love meeting members of our community and sharing the beauty of lavender.
We hope to see you soon!
