点评:It was definitely an "eye candy" experience to see the Lavender fields at Purple Hill Lavender Farm. I had no idea there were so many varieties of this gorgeous flower!
Great opportunity to take some fantastic pictures of the flower gardens, scenic landscapes of the Blue Mountain foothills and the Lavender fields. Just a word of caution: flower blooms attract tons of bees and wasps. You can hear an audible hum when you stand close to the Lavender plants! So monitor your pets and young children closely as it's very likely you could get stung by a bee, which happened to my friend on our recent visit to the farm. The farm management should make this very clear on the farm website!! People with bee and/or wasp sting allergies may want to rethink visiting this farm if they suffer from a life threatening reaction to insect stings.
Otherwise, it was a worthwhile experience! Bring your own liquid refreshments especially in hot weather, as there was no opportunity to purchase drinks on-site.

这是一个绝佳的机会,可以拍摄一些绝妙的照片,包括花园、蓝山山麓的风景和薰衣草田。需要注意的是:盛开的花朵会吸引大量的蜜蜂和黄蜂。当你靠近薰衣草植株时,你会听到嗡嗡声!所以要密切关注你的宠物和幼儿,因为很有可能被蜜蜂蛰伤,我的朋友最近去农场的时候就遇到过这种情况。农场管理层应该在农场网站上明确说明这一点!!对蜜蜂和/或黄蜂蛰伤过敏的人,如果被昆虫蛰伤后出现危及生命的反应,最好三思而后行。
除此之外,这趟旅程绝对物有所值!请自带饮料,尤其是在炎热的天气,因为农场现场没有饮料出售。
