FAQ
Our lavender blooms between mid-June through mid-July. We harvest the lavender at these times and later in the summer should we get a nice rebloom. Lavender is sold fresh and dried. If you are interested in fresh lavender, please contact me as early as possible as there are windows of time that we cut the lavender and will hold lavender back for customers before selling at markets.
Do you have operational hours?
No. We are not open to the public. The best way to connect is by phone, email, or Facebook/Instagram Messenger. We are located on a busy state route and at a private residence with a shared driveway, making it nearly impossible to have visitors stopping by. We also have a very active apiary that limits us having visitors.
Do you offer U-pick?
Not at this time. The most up to date status of the lavender in regard to bloom time and harvesting can be found by checking our Instagram account which we update weekly.
How much are your bundles of lavender?
We don’t count stems or weigh our bundles. A nice handful of fresh or dried lavender is $7 a bundle.
Do you sell lavender products?
Absolutely! These are sold online here on the shop page. We offer local delivery of our lavender and products to Aurora, Hudson, Streetsboro, and Chagrin Falls resident customers. We partner with two other companies, Traditions Engraving and Thistle & Twill on a variety of product collaborations that we offer our customers as well.
I have always wanted to grow lavender, but do not know where to start OR
I am growing lavender and I am having problems with the plants. Do you offer any help or advice?
Yes! We would be happy to see photos of your plants and/or answer any questions you have. Call, email, or Facebook/Instagram message us if interested in chatting. Lavender growing should be fun and exciting. We have a lot of lessons learned to share and want you to have as much fun as we do growing these beautiful plants.
We are also proud members of the United States Lavender Grower’s Association and the Herb Society of America. We highly recommend you checking out these incredible organizations and consider joining as you travel along your lavender growing journey.
Do you sell any plants?
We do not, however we plan to start selling next season in 2024. We currently do not have a nursery license to allow us to sell to interested customers. We would love to sell lavender and some of our Scottish heather that we grow.
Can I come and shoot photos of your lavender?
Now that we have a very active apiary with 7 hives, we no longer offer photo sessions for liability reasons. We are happy to recommend other local lavender farms that do offer photo shoots!
I am getting married and would like some lavender for my wedding. What do you offer?
We offer fresh lavender (when available) and dried lavender. Fresh lavender is all about the timing of the bloom and the weather. Let us know when you need it and we will let you know if we can help or if we have already harvested for drying. Letting us know ASAP will help us plan when we cut down the lavender and how much to hold back for you. We are also in contact and network with several other successful lavender farms locally and are more than happy to work with you and another local lavender grower to get you what you need for your special day if we are all out of fresh lavender. Did you know after your wedding, your lavender can be dried and used in a variety of ways to preserve the memories of your special day? Ask us how.
Do you sell honey? How about lavender honey?
We just became beekeepers in May of 2019. Our two hives produced some honey in 2019 which we kept for family and friends. Now that we have 7 established hives, we are selling honey! We sell out constantly and quickly, so please follow our Instagram for honey sale posts.
Can I come out and see your bees? Do you teach beekeeping skills or classes?
We are obsessed with all things honey bee and love to teach about them. Sometimes we get questions from families who are interested in beekeeping and would like to see an active hive in action to see how it works before diving in. Send us a message. We are happy to show you our colonies and teach you about the bees.
Do you sell bees or Queens?
We have our hives inspected by the Portage County Ohio bee inspector every year. We do have a Queen certificate as well. We plan on selling nucs if we have several splits to make. We also plan on rearing Queens in the near future.
Can we message you if we see a swarm?
YES! Please do! We have caught several swarms from our bees on our property and will come and save a bee swarm if you have one or see one. We don’t do cut-outs or rescue bees that have made their way into homes or structures. We can help you connect with other local beekeepers than can help!
