You're a lavender farmer. Do you also want to run a tourism business, including hiring security to enforce that only paying customers get the exclusive benefit you are now selling? I doubt it.
That "aggressively enforce good conduct" is key. There are dozens, hundreds of people showing up at the same time at some of these places.
- princetman 7y agoHere in UK we have a few lavender farmers who does exactly that. https://www.mayfieldlavender.com/mayfield-lavender-farm/ https://www.mayfieldlavender.com/mayfield-lavender-farm/
- wutbrodo 7y agoI think that, sadly, that decision was taken out the farmer's hands once the hordes of instagrammers started showing up. The choice he's faced now is "run a tourism business that keeps it skmehwta quarantined from your main business" or "run an unmanaged tourism giveaway that harms your main business".
- holografix 7y agoNoticed I mentioned a private location. Sure if you’re having to monitor acres of farmland that’s harder.
