We would like to see a community of individuals who share farming practices and share their experience with other growers in a safe and harmonious way. With the cultivation of lavender on the Central Coast growing we would like to encourage others to work together and form a strong, environmentally sound, agri-business. Now is the time. New members welcome. Register now and be a part of the ever growing community of lavender growers here on the Central Coast of California.
