Best Time to See the Lavender in Bloom

Stanthorpe’s Aloomba Lavender Farm grows a number of lavender varieties – meaning that there’s something flowering year round.  But there is a prime time to see the vast 6 acres of purple fields in bloom.  November through to early December is typically the window of opportunity to see the lavender at it’s best, with harvest usually kicking off mid-November and winding up mid-December.

A stunning ‘sea of purple’ awaits at Aloomba Lavender, where some 12,000 lavender plants are lined in avenues, inviting you to stroll the sights and certainly the smells of the farm! 

How to Visit the Farm

Aloomba Lavender Farm is open 7 days a week, 8.30am – 4.30pm.

The farm is free entry and offers Devonshire teas and coffee alongside a well stocked gift shop featuring their own award winning lavender oil amongst the many lavender delights.   This scenic spot offers lovely views across the surrounding cattle country.
Find Aloomba Lavender along a scenic country drive 20kms east of Stanthorpe at 5425 Mt Lindesay Road, Liston, near Stanthorpe.
