Oh wow, did we have an eventful start of the week at Santa RIta Hills Lavender Farm! Santa Barbara county was hit by a deluge of rain, and boy did we ever need it!
The week before we received 4.5”, but not to be outdone, this recent storm gave us 5.5” on top of that! Thankfully the damage we sustained was minimal, the gale force winds did most of the extrior damage, adn even then it was a few knocked over tables and chairs, our surveyor was checking the extent of the damage afterwards.
Unfortunately some of the local residents were rained out of their homes, but we were able to safely relocate everyone!
The house and the farmstand however held fast against the rain, so hopefully our next storm will be less disruptive, but cant control what Mother Nature decides to dish out! Hope that everyone stayed safe and dry in this recent storm, and wish that everyone continues as such with the next storm due to arrive this weekend!
