I save the word "magical" for places that truly deserve it. Tantivy Farm is one of those places…read more This magical place is one where you can walk through lavender fields, eat lavender ice cream, shop for lavender products, and meet some farm animals. It's a family-owned farm run by super nice people, and it's a great place to visit when you're in the Lexington area. You can explore more than a thousand lavender plants of 20 different varieties here. I visited during the off season, when the lavender bushes were spent and dormant, but there were a few sprigs here and there, and even so, the rest of the garden was lush and beautiful. If you want to experience the lavender fields in full bloom, you'll want to visit in late spring through summer. Around the end of May to the end of June is when they do U-pick lavender, where you can pick your own lavender bouquets. The owners also produce and sell lavender products, dried and fresh wreaths, lavender food (including lavender ice cream!). Friendly farm animals also live on the farm, and you might be able to meet and greet them. These are the most content and happy animals I've encountered maybe ever. Could it be because they live on a lavender farm and they're absorbing the calming vibes of this medicinal plant? Most likely it's because the owners are super awesome and treat the animals like family. It's great to see. The farm is open May to December.

They are obviously doing something right, as Bahrat told me that they often sell twelve gallons on a Saturday. His wife Shashma prepares a lovely Poha. I watched her carefully squeezing lemon juice over the "potato rice" with seasoned peanuts, tomatoes, cilantro, coconut and pomegranate seeds. As I dug into it I even found itty bitty mildly hot peppers, and what I think were tiny tender lime leaves. On a quick glance this appears to be simple Indian street food which it is, but once you sit down and savor the complexity of flavors you realize that no, it is perfect Indian food brimming with authenticity.

When we got there, we learned that nothing was available to be picked except for flowers which were way overpriced at $20 for 15 stems. So we walked around and looked at what they had to offer in their store. They had some peaches and nectarines to taste and I'm glad that we ended up not picking them because the white peaches had no flavor and the regular peaches were so tart. We did get to taste some of the other items they have for sale and I ended up buying a jar of peach salsa, which was sweet and spicy. Unfortunately they ended up double charging me for the one jar of peach salsa (the cashier made me scan my card twice because she said the first transaction didn't go through) and my credit card company reached out to me to ask if I had made both purchases. The saving grace for our hour and a half trip was their ice cream. They had some delicious peach flavored soft serve. I understand that picking fruits is seasonal, but for people like me who don't live nearby and check the website before making a long drive out, it would be great to make sure that the information posted is accurate.

The staff greeted us with warm smiles and helpful tips, making the experience feel welcoming from the start. Their marketplace has a wide selection of apple varieties, most of them are ready for sampling. While wandering the rows, we stumbled upon a few new favorites--crisp, sweet, and just the right amount of tart. If you're looking for a family‑friendly outing with fresh fruit, friendly faces, and plenty of tasty discoveries, Chiles Peach Orchard is a must‑visit. Notes: This maybe not in their control - lantern flies were everywhere, they don't bite, but they are invasive bugs, be careful not to get hitchhikers. Also, they sometimes add an admission fee on specific picking days, so check their website beforehand to avoid surprises.
