Sabrina's Shots From The Farm To Table Dinner!

Now that the afterglow from Santa Rita Hills Lavender Farm’s first annual Farm to Table Dinner is starting to wear off, Santa Rita Hills Lavender Farm is in the process of doing some routine chores when Sabrina Chavez, our friend and a local professional photographer, sent over the photos she did while we were busy entertaining during the Farm to Table Dinner. Here’s a look at all the people who helped make the night special Nuh from Nuh Bartending, Grady DiPietro our musical accompaniment for the night, and of course Denise the owner with executive chef of SY Kitchen and Nella Luca who was onsite baking his signature Pinzas, so delicious!!

Everyone had a wonderful time, how could they not? It was amazing food and an amazing time, a true highlight of Santa Barbara County!

We received a ton of feed back after the event, all of it positive, which means we will be turning the Farm To Table Dinner into an annual event! It’s sure to be a blast yet again, be sure to keep your eyes peeled here and on social media, we will let everyone know when we have new and exciting things to do around the farmstand!

Missed Our Events? Plan Your Own!

With all of the spots sold out for our Photo Sessions In The Field and The Honey Tastings all sold out, this first annual Living The Lavender Lifestyle Month at Santa Rita Hills Lavender Farm has been everything we planned for and more!

That being said, having all those events can really put a strain on you, so we've decided why not work with all the other lavender farms in the area and coordinate events on each of our farms? So, we've begun the works on a new project to put a fresh face on the Central Coast! Stay tuned, you never know how things will change around the farmstand!

Stay Tuned for the Central Coast Lavender Trail!

It's been a herculean effort on the part of this mother/son team; what other farm in the Santa Barbara County area had so many events in one month?
