Lavender

A couple of years ago we planted lavender at the artfarm. We had originally dreamed of row upon row upon row of purple bliss. What we ended up doing was putting about 200 plants in the ground. They are now 2 years old and still growing strong. They love their sunny south facing slope and are just prime and irresistible these days. I have been picking and bundling, drying and giving away. Lavender is marvellous in tea and ice cream.
Here is a sample ....


We have a few tipis staying at the farm at the moment. This one looks nifty between the lavender and the barn.
