Grab your keys, gas up the car, take a look at our Road Trip Essentials Packing List and Guide, and prepare for an unforgettable adventure to the loveliest lavender farms in Wisconsin.
As you can see from the map, the route to the most spectacular lavender fields in Wisconsin spans 249 miles and will take just over five hours to complete.

Continue your bloom-inspired journey with a visit to Fragrant Isle, the "Midwest’s largest lavender farm and shop." With 20,000 blooms it’s truly a sight to see – and the aroma isn’t bad either!

And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, there’s a café on site, too. For more information, visit the Fragrant Isle website.
Opened in 2014, Door County Botanicals is one of the newer lavender farms in Wisconsin, but that doesn’t make it any less impressive.

At Rowley Creek Lavender Farm, you’ll definitely want to make it a point to stop and smell the lavender! Remember, though, farm visits require an appointment, which must be made in advance.
