Lavender by the Bay – East Marion

Lavender by the Bay’s East Marion farm is the original and most iconic lavender destination on Long Island. Located on the North Fork just minutes from Greenport, this family-owned farm has become a beloved summer tradition for locals and visitors alike, offering a sensory experience unlike any other in New York State.

Founded in 2002, the East Marion farm spans over 17 acres and is planted with more than 80,000 lavender plants, including both English and French varieties. The English lavender typically blooms in mid to late June, while the French lavender follows in early to mid-July, offering visitors multiple chances to witness the fields in full, fragrant bloom. The sight of endless rows of purple blossoms stretching toward the horizon, paired with the soothing scent of lavender on the breeze, creates an unforgettable atmosphere.

Visitors can enjoy peaceful strolls through the fields, photography sessions in nature’s purple canvas, and the chance to shop at the on-site store. The farm’s boutique offers a curated selection of handcrafted lavender goods—everything from essential oils and soaps to sachets and culinary products—made with lavender grown right on the property.

Timed ticketing during peak bloom ensures an uncrowded and tranquil experience, and the farm encourages guests to unwind, slow down, and reconnect with nature. The team at Lavender by the Bay is deeply rooted in sustainable farming practices, horticultural craftsmanship, and community engagement, making the East Marion location not just a destination, but a Long Island institution.

Lavender by the Bay in East Marion blends natural beauty, agricultural heritage, and artisanal tradition—offering a peaceful escape and a feast for the senses each summer.
