Lavender Farm Tours
There are two lavender farms in Tasmania where you can wander around the farm.
Important: Most lavender is only in bloom from December to January. You can visit the farms outside of these dates, however you will not experience the purple flowers you see in the photos.
Bridestowe Lavender Estate

Tasmania’s passion for lavender began at Bridestowe Lavender Estate.
In 1921 London perfumer CK Denny migrated to Tasmania with his family, bringing a packet of lavender seeds from the southern French Alps.
Tasmania had a similar climate to Provence, making it ideal conditions to grow lavender. Today, the Bridestowe Lavender Estate welcomes over 50,000 people a year.
Bridestowe Lavender Estate is a fourty-five minute drive from Launceston and covers 260 acres; it is the world’s largest privately-owned lavender farm. The iconic curved rows are unique to Bridstowe, the were implemented to better capture and manage rainfall.
They are open to the public to wander through the fields, take photos, and even enjoy a picnic. There is also a cafe on-site that serves signature lavender-infused ice cream.
