I was in Provence July 15-22. I saw the harvest beginning about July 20th. Best area I found was between Limoux and Sault, France near Mt. Ventoux. Here it is grown commercially on very large farms.
If you are ever in the area in late July or early August, go to the small town of Sault and look down from the city park into the vast valley below at the endless fields of purple.

Hi

They were finished here about 1 month ago.

Larry J is right on the money.
