Day Trips to Lavender Oaks Farm in Chapel Hill - June 6 and 13, 2023
This is a "Day in Provence", North Carolina style as we enjoy a day trip to Lavender Oaks Farm in Chapel Hill. A 2 1/2 hour bus trip on an early June day offers fields of lavender for cuttings from 9 varieties, browsing in the Lavender Boutique selling handmade lavender products, a "meet and greet" by the farm owner and your choice of a Lavender Box Lunch featuring Lavender based recipes, mai oui!
Following our visit to the farm, we enjoy another French inspired experience as we stop at the French Connection on the way home. Located in the historic Thompson House in Pittsboro, this unique shop has been a shopping destination since the year 2000. Offerings include French antiques, African Art, imported fabrics from France and West Africa and whimsical yard art from Mexico. There will also be time to wander through a few other specialty shops and galleries in town. You can end the day with a touch of Americana with a visit to the popular S&T Soda Shoppe!
The cost of the trip is $93 and includes lunch. Two dates are offered. June 6 offers a pick-up location in Leland and Porters Neck. Here is the link for that trip: www.wetravel.com/trips/lavender-farm-day-trip-patty-chapel-hill-66992019. **This date is sold out. Please send an email to tripsbypatty@gmail.com if you wish to be on a waiting list.
