Lavender Workshop 2nd August 2025 2pm

This workshop is all about lavender. This wonderful plant immediately evokes the senses, warm sunny days, wafting scent, bees and butterflies. We will begin with a walk around our lavender borders and point out the various varieties grown at our flower farm and discuss the myriad of lavender uses. After harvesting, we will light up one of our beautiful copper stills and show you how to produce lavender hydrosol and oil which you can then use to make your own sleep spray and scented plaster diffuser. You will also have the opportunity to make a hand tied lavender posy or lavender wreath if you prefer. There will be plenty of time to relax in the beautiful floral surroundings and take in the calming effects for which lavender is so well known. Refreshments and snacks will be provided. The flower farm is on an exposed site and the ground can be uneven and muddy in places. We are working towards being fully accessible but at the moment we cannot accommodate people who use wheelchairs or children in buggies. If you would like any further information please get in touch.
