Blog @ Purple Haze Lavender Ltd.

While we were waiting for summer to appear, we have been busy improving our lavender oil distillation area. This wonderful structure was built and designed by our friend Patrick and fits in perfectly with the farm. Now rain or shine-distilling will be a more comfortable experience for all! We hope you will join us for the distilling demos Lavender Weekend (July 15, 16 & 17, 2011)! This is a great opportunity to see the still work and get all of your questions answered!

We recently came across this article online that you might find helpful if you are the type of person who eats whenever you feel stressed, you may want to stop binging on calorie- and sugar-laden chocolates and sip warm lavender tea instead. Lavender tea has long been recommended by herbalists for its calming effects — a belief that is supported by modern research.

This year we have placed the tickets for the farm tours (July 15, 16, & 17, 2011) that happen at Purple Haze Lavender & 6 other farms in Sequim on sale early! We have had many requests to make them available for purchase ONLINE earlier this year! So we did!  Saves time when you get to the farm and you don’t need to have the extra cash in hand! Besides that you save $5.00 per person…..children under 12 are still FREE! Come celebrate Purple Haze Lavender’s 15th Anniversary!  There is always great music, yummy food and a chair waiting for you!!

There were so many people who loved this artists work two years ago that the Sequim Lavender Farmers thought it would be great to choose her again! Here is the link to the article in our local paper the Sequim Gazette.

We hope everyone is making their plans for July 15, 16 & 17 to join us at Purple Haze Lavender Farm. Not only to enjoy all the great entertainment, food and unique vendors, but to come and help us celebrate our 15th Anniversary! Due to the fact that we have snow on the ground today- we can’t wait for summer and those beautiful rows and rows of lavender! We hope to see you July 15, 16 & 17 for lavender weekend in Sequim!

We have sold these dishes in our Purple Haze Lavender Downtown store and Farm store for years. This year they were in our Christmas Box and were very popular-so we decided it is time to put them in our online store!
