We have amazing vendors, entertainers & speakers attending this year's Lavender Bloom Festival and we think they deserve proper introductions. Please click on their headers to visit their sites and learn more about their creations and talents.
As vendors apply and are accepted, we will continue to add their information.
A Perfect Combination of Culinary & Carpentry
MSC Woodworking, brings together the best of both worlds – cooking and woodworking. Their cutting boards are not only durable but also provide a beautiful work surface for all your culinary creations.
Their butcher block cutting boards remain unstained to showcase the natural beauty of the exotic wood used. MSC believes that the woodgrain should be highlighted in its original state. To ensure that their boards last for years, they are coated with an oil-wax blend product.
They also offer tailored designs and multiple options. Designs are fully customizable, providing you with the freedom to select from a wide range of woods and several board designs. Their fractal wood art is a distinctive and innovative way to bring natural yet unique elements into your home.
New to the food court is the Grateful Grub Food Truck which serves both Wicomico and Worcester counties. Formed by friends who share a bond for the love of food, music and surfing! Grateful Grub gives back to the community with donations to a variety of charities.
They will be serving guests during the Sunday session, and we look forward to trying their yummy bowls & platters.
Local artist, Grace McCarter, is a passionate lacemaker from Salisbury, MD. She specializes in tatted lace and aims to help preserve its history and revive it as a handmade art form. She is currently a member of the Chesapeake Region Lace Guild and is working on making a full-length lace cloak. We are honored to have her back as a Bloom Fest vendor.

We first met Rich & Barb at the Hebron Farmers market & when Barb stopped by the field to collect lavender trimmings. This charming establishment offers a delectable array of homemade jams, jellies, and preserves. Imagine spreading their flavorful concoctions on warm toast or pairing them with cheese for an exquisite treat. Not only do their soaps smell lovely, they are beautiful. We also know they source local ingredients because our oil is in their lavender soap! Check out their FB page (click on name above) to start shopping; I know their products will sell fast....again!
The Popcorn Lab
Laura's rules are simple--only non-GMO, organic popcorn popped in organic refined coconut oil and no artificial flavors or colors...ever! And the taste speaks for itself. The Popcorn Lab's special lavender flavors were a sell out last year so don't wait too long to buy your bag(s)! We loved them all, but the lavender earl grey flavor was superb!
Lana gifted us an abundance of beautiful photos from last year's Bloom Festival. She will be attending again to take pictures of 2025's event. We have arranged for her to have plenty of golden hour sessions at the farm during this season, so please contact her to setup a time to have your pictures taken in the field.
If you would like to use last year's pictures, they are available in exchange for a donation to @cedarcrestfosters:

Danny Hines has been playing at Bloom Fest since our first one three years ago. He will be singing and playing his guitar next to the lavender fields during the Saturday session while we all enjoy listening to some new songs and classics. Time to be soothed with scent & sound.
Feel free to check out his FB page (link on name) to where he's scheduled to play next.
We welcome back Logan Oluvic to this year's Sunday session. She is a young, aspiring, Eastern Shore artist who gifted us her beautiful, mellow voice at our last two festivals. Not only is she a keyboardist, bass player, guitarist and singer, but she also writes her own songs.
Our friends SteelMobile & Kids Flaming Foods from Somerset County will be back this year serving delicious lunch & picnicking faire at the Bloom Festival.
Menu includes:
Cheesesteaks
Wing Dings (All Flavors)
Chicken Cheesesteaks
Burgers
Hotdogs
Fries
I can still taste the wing dings I got last year; yummy! And I loved seeing the family enjoy the lavender.
Kona Ice will be back! Known as the coolest shaved ice truck in town they will bring the party to us. We anticipate another serving of their Lavender Lemonade Icee. Sweet lemon flavor combined with the delicate taste of lavender create quite the refreshing combo. The perfect tonic on a warm day.
Wildwood has partnered with Certified Yoga Instructor, Nicole Bellamy, of Sandbar Yoga to offer yoga and sound bath sessions at the Bloom Festival. Nicole created amazing experiences our last two seasons & we look forward to her gentle guided sessions during this year's Lavender Waves program.
For full schedule and Sandbar Yoga session tickets:
We are excited to introduce Seven Divas and their hand poured candles & gifts! Being a local small business from Harrington, Delaware, we partnered with them last season to make our candles. We can verify that they are using our farm distilled lavender oil in the candles they make for Wildwood. And they smell amazing!
They are just 2 Best Friends of over 20+ years and their daughters trying to make the world a better place one candle or gift at a time while promoting mental health awareness and self care.
Enjoy this every year. Lavender is beautiful and smells amazing.
