In case of rain: If the weather brings rain on the day of the event, we will move the band and seating under our beautiful timber pavilion with great views of the lavender fields. and the Patuxent River.

Tables & Seating: All tables will be set in advance, and seating is first-come, first-served. Arrive early for the best seating! If you are celebrating a special occasion—such as an engagement, birthday, or anniversary—please let us know in advance. We would be happy to help reserve a special spot for you.

Accessibility: Please note our lavender fields have gentle rolling hills that require walking on uneven terrain. If you are accompanying someone who needs special accommodation, please let us know in advance so we can help and arrange for a staff member to assist. 

Bees & Bugs: We have bee hives on our property. They mainly mind their own beeswax, but as seating will be in the fields, we ask you to be aware/cautious and come prepared with any medication if you are allergic. We encourage guests to apply mosquito spray after parking (before going to your picnic setup) for a more enjoyable, bug-free evening.

Local Accommodations: Make it a weekend getaway! We highly recommend the Inn at Leonardtown. It's 15 minutes away and in the adorable, walkable town of Leonardtown.

Dixon Family Farm

Growing tobacco since the mid-1600s, the Dixon Family Farm was established in 1881. and recognized as a Maryland Century Farm. Using biodynamic farming practices, we now grow acres of lavender, wine grapes, cut flowers, wildflowers, vegetables, herbs, and a variety of botanicals we use in our farm-made soaps and other products. We harvest and distill lavender and other botanicals every summer and use steam distillation to produce high-quality essential oils. Check out our line of bath and body products in our online farm shop! https://dixon-family-farm.square.site/
