Just For Fun


Lavender Fields Forever

    And you thought lavender only grew in the South of France. Well, the heat in DC might remind
you of it, minus the Mediterranean breeze.  Lavender it turns out grows quite nicely in abundance in Virginia and I have even spotted it in a few gardens in DC. A family farm in Virginia is capitalizing nicely on it and features everything Lavender at their booth at the DC Farmers Market every Sunday morning (8:30-3:00pm).

There is no end to their creativity of what one can do with Lavender. Infuse it in chocolate chip cookies-no problem. Grind it with other 'herbs de provence'- sweet. How about on that hot day a cool lavender lemonade!  Yes, please.

   You can eat it, put it in soaps, make sachets, and bake it in a cake. 
You are only limited by your imagination when it comes to lavender. 
Stop by their booth tomorrow- see what i mean, and maybe you will get a few entrepreneurial ideas of your own.
