Lavender U-Cut
Nothing is more soothing than sitting in a field of purple, and working with lavender plants. It's difficult for me to work quickly when cutting large quantities for oil. It lulls me into a calm state as I move the stems and release the fragrance. Grab a pair of scissors and enjoy the relaxing experience of cutting your own lavender bundles to bring home.

Lavender Treats
Lavender lemonade, ice cream bars and baked treats! All great ways to experience the culinary lavender- English Lavender. My favorite to bake with is called Royal Velvet Lavender. It's bright, sweet, mildly floral with a touch of citrus. It doesn't have the "soapy" flavor of some other varieties. I bake lavender shortbread, Lavender Earl Grey Snickerdoodles and lavender jams, for our farm stand. The farm bees also craft their culinary treat from the lavender: our delicious lavender honey!
