Inspired by nature. Every summer I try to make at least one basket

Yesterday I harvested a little Lavender.
 It is a little bit.
 We do not compare to any other Lavender farms. We do not have fields and fields just gardens. It wouldn't seem right to  plow up the hay fields to make Lavender. Oh even though I dream of it.
That would mean cutting right down to next to no livestock. I would need help that would mean hire someone.
 And, I really need to figure out how to winter the Lavender better.We really have too much loss.
Still one can dream...And, DREAM I will
I think today I will go bug my Dad for his rototiller. Then dig some edges then I can plant a few more plants.

What wonderful things wait for us today!

I need this today CALM. I need to remember to relax. Sometimes it is not easy. Things keep coming at you in full speed.
So remember a Calmness
Off to weed some Lavender

Take a moment to go to our local nursery and pick up a lavender plant.
Lavender is amazing used as a border when you walk in your garden you can brush up against it and it will provide you with the most Wonderful, Romantic scent.
Lavender is low maintance, needs little water and once it's roots take hold it will give you up to ten years of pleasure.
So go on go buy yourself a little Lavender plant.

Try planting Lavender, Thyme, Sage and Oregano

Have you ever walked out among the lavender?

 Have you ever weeded the Lavender only to find Peace wash right over you.

Nothing makes you smile more than a garden full of flowers blooming. In spite of our cold weather the flowers are blooming.

Did you know people picked Lavender at an altitude of about one thousand meters after July fourteenth in the nineteenth century.
For many years Lavender was only thought as a wild plant.
