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.

New Gardener's Soap!!

Just made these great herbal soaps.
Made from an all natural base, with green clay,
cornmeal, and apricot seeds for scrubbing up those
hands after a long day of gardening. We scented this
handcrafted soap with rosemary, geranium, and clary
sage essential oils. It will remind you of still being in
the herb garden.
