You can purchase Twinkle Bus tickets at the New Chitose Airport JR Information Desk, open until 1900 each day. You have to have a JR Ticket (or any JR pass, but it doesn't cover the cost of the bus) in order to qualify for purchase of the Twinkle bus tickets.
I don't know if same day tickets are available at JR Information desk at Sapporo. Hopefully, someone else will know. I'm sure you are aware that Twinkle buses don't depart from Sapporo, so you'll have to take a train to wherever the start is.

Thank you Angler. I tried Yokoso Tour for their day tour to the lavender field, but there were no tour during the Obon.Which is why we have to figure out ourselves. Anyone can advise as we love to see the beautiful lavender field of Furano and Biel. Thanks for your kind advice.

Consider the following if you are looking for a bus tour to Furano and Biei from Sapporo. http://www.chuo-bus.co.jp/sightseeing.en/stsg_p1.php The only concern is whether the lavender would still be blooming by mid August. Normally the best time is during July. Early August is still fine, just hope by the time of your visit they will still be there. Anyway you will see lots of colourful flowers and Farm Tomita has a greenhouse where lavender grows year round.
