Hot off the hive...
After some experimentation and tweaking, we are happy to introduce our lavender beeswax candles. We meant to sell all of them but, since they smell so good, we are burning them every night in our house. Get yours before we use them all.
Lavender and Spittlebugs!
What is that white foamy stuff on my plants??
Spittle bugs will appear in early spring on your lavender plants and are detected by the white foamy spittle, which is emitted as camouflage! Your plants may appear unsightly but the damage is minimal. Damage may result in twisting or deformation of the leaves and stems. Washing the spittle bugs off the lavender plants may only be a temporary solution, and could result in too much moisture in and around your lavender plant.
We don't worry about them in our fields, because as the weather warms the spittle bugs will disappear before the flowers bloom.
So relax about the white foamy stuff and look forward to the lavender season to come!
Happy Gardening!

Open Easter Weekend!
We WILL be open this Sunday, April 24th, for Easter. Hopefully it will be really sunny and you can bring your families by to enjoy the lavender farm. We'll even have some bubbles and candy for the kids!
We're open everyday, 10-5, and this weekend we're having a 20% off sale off everything in the store, (except Lavender Farm Faire Posters and Tickets) so it's a wonderful time to stop by!
Lavender Plants Are In!
We've just brought in some lavender plants for the early gardeners out there! Spring is a great time to plant lavender, as the lavender plants will have all spring and summer to get established before cooler weather comes. Later in the spring, or early summer, we'll bring in more lavender plants and more lavender varieties. But for now, here's what we have at the lavender farm:
4" pots: Grosso, Royal Velvet, Melissa, Otto Quast, and a 3" Regal Splendor. We also have a 1 gallon Hidcote.
We're also have a few indoor lavender plants, the variety "Pinata."
