Lavender Academy
We do several Lavender Academies a year, in April, June and September all with a different focus.

Then in the summer with a focus on harvesting July 17th and 18th.
Then in the fall our final session will be September 11th and 12th.
Here is a brief synopsis of our classes.
Join us for a 2 day intensive workshop which covers Lavender 101 and Beyond. The first day will be informational, how to pick your varieties, grow, plant and harvest as well as learning how to prune and rejuvenate plants with lots of hands on work in the gardens. The second day will deal with Value added from the farm. We will cover liability issues for folks visiting your property but will concentrate on product making- hands on classes including lotion bars, bath bombs and lots more. 2 lunches, snacks and drinks are included. Registration is limited, so sign up early, we are taking reservations presently.

CHRISTMAS WREATH
This is not any normal wreath, we call it a forever wreath . Make it one year and then keep it forever.
Take a LIVE balsam wreath and decorate it for Christmas and beyond. These wreaths will dry naturally and you will be able to use them for years.
The Balsam will naturally turn a fabulous shade of brown, the needles will not shed and you will have a "decorator" wreath which will be the envy of your friends. Not your average Christmas wreath! $40.00 per person- all materials included.
I have one 27 years old, scroll down to see my wreath. It began as a green fresh wreath and was decorated with cockscomb, hydrangea and pinecones. It took almost three months for it to darken but it now looks like a decorator wreath and is left out year round.
Registration is required, class is at 1:00 and the cost is $40.00 which includes all the materials.
