Bus Tour Managers should contact Laura to schedule your group or bus tour today! We are limiting the days & times we accommodate Bus Tours to Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays  at  9-10:30 am  or 3:30-5 pm throughout our peak season. Mid June-July are the best times 2024 to see lavender in full bloom. You can contact Laura through our email: info@newlifelavender.com for details on our bus tour package. Please note that our Wagon Ride Farm Tours are no longer available for mid-large sized groups during our prime season. If you wish to take a Wagon Tour of our farm for groups of 15+, we can schedule these in August-September. 

• Cancellation Policy for large groups is as follows:

  • Your group event is very important to us and we reserved this day especially for you. We understand that sometimes schedule adjustments are necessary, therefore, we respectfully request at least 24 hours notice for cancellations. As a courtesy, we will EMAIL you to confirm your exact number of participants for your group 2 days prior to your scheduled event, allowing time to respond within 24 hours. Any cancellations and no shows after 24 hours will result in full charge of the event per person . So for example, if you confirm 56 people and only 30 people arrive, you will still be charged for 56 people after 24 hours confirmation.

  • This policy allows us time to inform any standby guests of any availability, as well as making sure we have the right amount of food prepared and staff hired. Thus we're able to better serve everyone.

  • If you have any questions about this please let us know! 

• For cancellations of any individual event: If you have signed up for any one of our individual events that we are holding on our farm that is open to the public, we kindly ask for 48 hours notice for a full refund. We will not offer refunds for any classes/events after 48 hours or for no shows. This policy allows us to to inform any standby guests or those on a waiting list, as well as to make sure we have enough food prepared, supplies bought, and staff hired, thus allowing us to better serve everyone.
