Located on the Saanich Peninsula, Vancouver Island B.C.

Our lavender farm is on two acres of property in Central Saanich. One acre is dedicated to cultivating lavender plants, about 2500. Our main variety is Grosso, with some Super and Provence.

The farm was started in May 2006 and presently produces fresh lavender bunches in season and dried lavender buds for year-round sales.

The fresh lavender bunches are sold mainly to a wholesale florist, at the local farm market and our roadside stand; the dried lavender buds are sold in bulk and are used for sale in fragrant sachets (spa’s and wedding favours etc.).

Fresh & Dried Lavender

Our main crop of lavender, Grosso, is one of the most fragrant of the lavandins (lavandula x intermedia). Also it is the primary commercial variety for production of lavender oil. Its fragrance, large flower heads, and heavy-flowering nature make it a quality plant to grow. And fortunately for home gardeners, it makes an excellent plant that is highly adaptable throughout most of North America.

The 20 to 24 inch stems of Grosso add to the beauty of fresh bundles. Fresh cut flowers will last 7 to 10 days in a small amount of water and can then be hung upside down to dry. Our fresh bundles are are handmade and come in 2 sizes, medium 50-60 stems and large 80-90 stems.
