Lavender season typically peaks from late May through early July, when the hillsides come alive with vibrant purple blooms. Farms across Ramona open their gates to visitors for a brief but beautiful window of time, offering U-pick experiences, handmade products, and peaceful strolls through aromatic rows of lavender.
One standout is the newly expanded lavender field at Oasis Camel Dairy, a unique destination where camels roam nearby and the scent of lavender fills the air. Yes—camels and lavender! It’s a pairing you didn’t know you needed.
This is the second year for the Camel Valley Lavender Farm located in Ramona, California. The 2 acre field has over 3000 lavender plants with 5 different varieties of lavender. The Lavender field is open on select Saturdays in June and July.

The founders of Oasis Camel Dairy Farm purchased 8 acres along the southern edge of the camel grazing pasture and have repurposed 2 acres for growing lavender. Twice a day at 11am and 2pm some of the 21 dromedary camels that live on the Oasis Camel Dairy make their way to the fence line for a snack of hay.
