About Beagle Ridge Lavender Farm
Beagle Ridge is a lavender and nature farm on Matney Flats Road outside Wytheville, in the Blue Ridge valley country of southwest Virginia. The owners recently marked 25 years on the farm, and their stated mission is to teach people of all ages about the outdoors and to conserve it. A visit mixes lavender with garden work, trail hiking, birdwatching, herbal crafts and a butterfly house, and guests can sip herbal tea outdoors and pose by the farm's LOVE sign during bloom.
The farm is best known among growers for its Lavender Academy. More than 450 growers from 39 states have attended over the years. For 2027 the farm plans a mini academy as part of an April conference and a two-day intensive, Lavender 101 and beyond, at the end of July; pricing and agendas are sent on request.
For the 2026 season the farm has closed except by appointment, and it will try to fit in visitors who call, text or email to ask for a time. Products are sold through their online store, in local shops and wholesale, and the recipe pages on their website, from lavender scones and cookies to salts, syrups and sorbet, show how the farm uses its culinary lavender.
Wytheville is about 10 minutes away, with shops such as Simply Home.
