Pennsylvania Lavender Festival at Willow Pond Farm

Directions to the Pennsylvania Lavender Festival

If you can find Gettysburg, you can find Fairfield and Willow Pond Farm!

From Gettysburg, head west on Rt. 116 (West Middle St.) eight miles to Fairfield. From the new Post Office as you come into town, continue about one mile (Main St. has no stop lights, but a well-enforced 25 mile per hour speed limit) to free parking and shuttle at the school.

From Washington, D.C., take Rt. 270 west to Frederick, MD, then Rt. 15 north to Rt. 140 at Emmitsburg, MD (the birthplace of Elizabeth Ann Seton, the first woman in America to be canonized as a saint). Go west on Rt. 140 through Emmitsburg, into Pennsylvania where the road becomes PA Rt. 16. Continue about 2.5 miles to Rt. 116 on the right. Follow Rt. 116 about 4 miles to free parking and shuttle at the school.

From Interstate 81, take Rt. 16 east at Greencastle through Waynesboro and Blue Ridge Summit. As you reach the bottom of the hill east of Blue Ridge Summit, turn left onto Rt. 116. Follow Rt. 116 3.7 miles past the (very nice) Carroll Valley golf course and Ski Liberty, to parking at Fairfield School.
