Lavender farms closer to the GTA, learn from Bonnieheath, stop charging for admission! It's lame…read moreand people will just end up spending money on your items if you're not asking for money upfront.
There is no admission fee to admire the lavender fields here at Bonnieheath, located just outside of Port Dover. Unfortunately, I missed their bloom as it apparently ended in July. :(
In addition to lavender, Bonnieheath is also a winery/cidery, so you can enjoy glasses of wine/cider on their relaxing property. 1oz samples of wine was $3ea, although it really should be 2oz, ha ha. They also sell bottles to enjoy at home!
The younger man who helped me was super pleasant, talking about things to do in the area, how the climate on the property is similar to Provence, etc.
Overall, if you're in the area, it was a pleasant stop...especially when the flowers are in bloom! At the time of my visit, there was a wedding party there, a family having a picnic with some wine, so it's quite picturesque and relaxing.
