Accolades: - Voted one of North America’s Top 100 Events by the American Bus Association. - Claire Murray, Editor, LaVie Claire Magazine.—“Having fallen in love with the lavender fields of France, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that this region (Sequim-Dungeness Valley) is now considered the lavender capital of the United States. There seemed to me an almost mystical connection between those fields where the Olympic Mountains roll down to the ocean and the foothills of the Southern Alps as they slope gently to the Mediterranean Sea.” - ”Taste of America” : The 2006 festival was the focus of a segment of the Travel Channel’s Taste of America that aired in March of 2007.
