dka - as underhill rightly point out, within a 2 hour (even slightly less) drive of Marseille you get get right to the heart of lavender country -
Best viewing is either on the Plateau d'Albion (around the village of Sault) or the Plateau de Valensole (around Valensole). Both have a major week-end festival themed around lavender (Sault in August and Valensole in July) which are lots of fun, but total mob scenes.

to TMC - your best bet is to train it to Avignon (a bit less than 3 hrs from Paris) then rent a car and head to the above....
