Attendees of the Summer Solstice Lavender Festival near Martinsville roamed around and dodged some raindrops Saturday. But even if the sky wasn’t blue, the fields were still lavender. Now in its 11th year, the festival, held at Peaceful Acres Lavender Farm, continues to have the same soothing feel. Pictured are two Wilmingtonians; from left are Jacki Osborn and Emma Heys. They are picking their own lavender to keep.
