Mike’s Magic Mix

was developed by the Big Guy himself to give our farm’s lavender the proper nutrition it needs. This is a complete N-P-K mixture with micronutrients. What this means is that you can give your lavenders a boost when you plant them or in the spring without overfeeding them or burning the roots or leaves.
Can be used when planting or as a yearly side dressing.

As I am sure you are aware, Purple Haze has a long list of high-quality organic lavender products. We sell these products online at our yahoo store.

Purple Haze is a 100% organic lavender farm that distills our own essential lavender oils and uses these products to make sweet-smelling and relaxing lavender body products, as well as aromatherapy and culinary supplies.

We have refreshing lemon & lavender liquid soap in attractive 8 oz. kitchen or bathroom dispensers as well as gallon-size refills! This is what we all love to use after working in the garden and we hope that you will enjoy our products as much as we do!

  Over the years we have received many requests for a lavender shampoo and so the time has come for a Purple Haze Lavender Shampoo of our own!  We hope you will enjoy this refreshing and soothing blend of lavender, tangerine and rosemary……not only is it good for your hair, but also good for your senses!

Just as the winter duldrums are setting in…do something that is gonna make you feel light again! Start planning a Spring or summer vacation. Our Sequim vacation rental is available year-round and it is the perfect place to escape with your friends or family once our lavender starts blooming and the fields are perfumed with lovely, organic produce. We have a large porch with comfortable Adirondack chairs and a swinging bench.

Or, if the long nights of summer just seem too far away, why don’t make your escape right now!? Get a couple friends together and come to the Olympic Peninsula for some astounding beauty, delicious food

around town, endless trails through the forest and along the beach and maybe a little time in the steam room? Being in the steam room at our vacation rental is almost like being in the tropics!

At $275 a night (with a 2 night minimum), that ends up being an affordable way for a group of girlfriends, buddies or a family to get together for some R&R in front of our flat screen TV or in the luxurious hot tub.

Hope to see you soon!

There is lots of great wine on the Peninsula, and lots of places to taste it! Next time you stay at our Sequim Vacation Rental, make sure to get out and try some of our delicious local wines and fare!

Wine on the Waterfront is a new place (I think?) in Port Angeles offering wine tastings on a regular basis throughout the month on Mondays. They also have a lot of live music events.

Another great event coming up on the Peninsula is Red Wine and Chocolate from the Olympic Peninsula Wineries. This group of vintners uses Washington grapes to create wines here on the Peninsula. There are seven cellars making Washington artisan wines along our edge of the Straight.

Red Wine and Chocolate is occurring over two weekends next month, February 7&8, and February 14,15 & 16, between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. Each of the participating wineries is pairing their favorite wines with specialty chocolates. The ticket ($25) includes commemorative wine glasses, wine tasting and a sample of chocolate at each winery. Of course you may also visit each individual winery for tasting at the rate of $5.00.

We are lucky to live here in the Peninsula, where our bounty extends from bulk lavender to Washington State wines all within the watchful gaze of the Olympic Peninsula range. Come and visit us soon, it won’t be trip you forget.
