Redware Jars

Redware Jars are back in stock!!
I love filling these primitive
crocks with all kinds of florals!!

Rosemary Raised Bed

The rosemary did very well this season, especially since the cuttings
were so small. I will use this to infuse an organic oil and make into a
new salve this Christmas. Heard its going down low tonight, I better
cover the rosemary and the patchouli. (who especially does not like the
frost).
Blessings,
Karen

Everlasting and Potpourri Garden

The Everlasting and Potpourri Gardens are blooming abundantly!!
We will be harvesting flowers to be used in potpourris and wreaths
until the first hard frost.

Lavender Harvest

The Lavender Fields were plentiful this season.
We grew 2 varieties this year.
A new one planted last year the variety 'Super'
This is one of the most elegant lavandins.

This variety features a light and flowery aroma.
Super has the best perfume of all lavandins

and is mainly used for soap fragrances
and aromatherapy because it produces a lot of oil.

The other variety we grew is 'Grosso'
Its long stems are excellent for
dried bouquets and potpourris. This is
our best-selling bunch,
a little darker in color than our new variety Super.

Our lavender is picked at its peak of perfection,
then quickly dried in our
attics of our shop.

Herb Shop

The Little Shop that started it all. Built in 1993 by my husband
this was our first shop along with a greenhouse that started
our Family Cottage Business....
