Out on Santa Rita Hills Lavender harvesting some of the ladies, each of these plants we were able to get on average eight bundles! They’re pretty happy to get the haircut, and our farmstand is happy for the interior decoration.
It's so satisfying to see someone else come to harvest my lavender for me, so much easier 😁.
While some of the lavender went off to greener pastures, the rest of it we distilled into essential oil, some of it we have been using to add into our farmstand goods, but Foxen Canyon Soap also uses our oil for all their lavender soaps and bath Bombs, check it out here.

In preparation for the Santa Rita Hills Lavender Lavender Wreathmaking event, our floral designer is doing a dry run on some 10” and 12” wire frames behind our farmstand.
First we harvested the lavender then we make them into little bundles.
Next we take the bundles and use thin wire to hold the bundles to the wreath wire frame.
Then once we have tied all of the bundles to the frame we squeeze one more bundleintoIt's shaping up to be an amazing day! Sign up here if this looks like it'll be a fun time!

As we have settled into farm life, we found that lavender just wasn’t enough, so we signed up for the 2021 Floret Online Workshop and then started to experiment with specialty cut flowers and boy did our experiment produce results! Now along with having a sea of lavender we now have a 1/4 acre beautiful cut flower field as well! The Blessings continue to pile up!
Our first guests to Santa Rita Hills Lavender Farm! What a perfect day; big blue sky lavender in full bloom and 🐝🐝 bees buzzing as they work the field. They had a wonderful time, and took some beautiful pictures!
