Our Story
When we began our lavender journey in 2006, there were no real resources available to guide us. Books and articles existed, but none truly prepared us for the realities of lavender farming. We learned the bulk of our knowledge through experience — seasons of trial and error, careful observation, and honest reflection on our successes and challenges. Today, with over 20 years of hands-on farming and product sales, we’re proud to share that hard-earned knowledge so you can avoid costly mistakes and move faster toward profitability.
Lavender Consulting Services
Our consulting services are designed as personalized, intensive analysis and site visits, with additional focus on business scope and scaling. This isn’t for people who have just a few quick questions. We start from the ground up — evaluating your farm, your chosen lavender crop, and your business goals — to find ways to make your lavender and your operation healthier, more efficient, and more profitable.
