Lavender Hill Run

Lavender Hill Run

Lavender Hill Run is a farm-based 5K held at Lavender Hill Farm in Boyne City, Michigan, on September 12, 2026. The course runs across the farm’s 33 acres and follows a hilly, unpaved route that passes lavender plots and flower gardens and offers countryside views. The start area is at the Drying Shed parking area and the finish is in front of the Big Red Barn.

Race services include a race bib with professional timing, a commemorative 5K T-shirt, a handcrafted wooden finishers medal made by local students, and awards for top finishers in each age bracket. Parking is available at the Drying Shed Parking Lot. Packet pickup is offered the day before at the Farmhouse Boutique and on race day at the Drying Shed.

Ticket pricing is tiered by registration date: early bird, regular, and late registration fees are listed with corresponding date ranges; late registrants may not be guaranteed T-shirt size. The Farmhouse Boutique will offer post-run items such as lattes and lavender treats, and the property remains open for participants to visit the gardens and relax after the event.

The course terrain is uneven; while the Barn, Farmhouse, and restrooms are ADA compliant, the unpaved course may present accessibility challenges. Ages 12 and up are recommended; children must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
