The imagination is limitless when it involves the ancient and modern uses of lavender — from hydrating oils, lotions and soaps, relaxing eye pillows, culinary ingredients and pet apparel to the beautifully prepared lavender bouquets and loose lavender buds.
And, of course, unique and hard-to-locate lavender plants will be available at the Street Fair and the farms.

Washington State Ferry (WSF) terminals are likely to see an increase in traffic primarily affecting the Seattle to Bainbridge and Edmonds to Kingston routes.
It is important to follow signage leading up to and at each ferry terminal. Be mindful of the tally slip needed at the Kingston ferry terminal during heavy congestion and when the WSDOT signs advise. When the Kingston terminal is completely full, Washington State Patrol troopers hold ferry traffic outside of town at eastbound State Route 104 and Lindvog Rd NE. At this point, troopers will begin to issue boarding passes. The pass ensures your place in line as you travel through Kingston to the ferry toll booth to purchase a ticket.
WSP troopers will be on the lookout for line cutters throughout the WSF system. As a reminder, please do not contact a line cutter yourself. Report to the HERO line (1-877-764-HERO) or advise WSF staff if this behavior is observed.
