Our plantings last around 5 years. Rain for months on end has caused us heavy plant loss this season. We only grow from cuttings since with seed lavender you never really know what variety you are planting due to cross pollination. Thanks for watching.
What a sweet operation, from the ground up. Love your little farm. Doesn't look like all that much acreage but maybe your video doesn't show that much?
Are your plants perennial in Oregon? Here in Iowa, the winters are hard on lavender.
Do you plant from seed? I want to do this more for a hobby than a business. Maybe haul some down to the Saturday Farmers Market just for fun!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. Great video! (Oh and we wave at the neighbors too!)
Thanks for your very informative videos. I hope you don't mind me asking a couple of questions? I noticed that in the drum there was both blue and white varieties of 'intermedia', is it common to blend differing varieties in the distilling process?
And, how long does the steaming process take? Regards.
How much does your mobile set up cost?

It makes a good contrast for the video. Steam distilling usually takes between30-60 minutes.
