Aromatic Experience

One of the highlights of visiting a U-Cut lavender field is the chance to harvest your own lavender. You'll be provided with safety shears, and you can walk through the rows of lavender, selecting and cutting your preferred stems. It's a hands-on experience that allows you to choose the freshest blooms for your own personal use. (Please do not use your own shears or scissors.)
Relaxation and Tranquility
Lavender is renowned for its calming properties, and spending time in a lavender field can be incredibly relaxing. The gentle rustling of the lavender in the breeze, coupled with the soothing fragrance, creates a serene environment that promotes a sense of tranquility and peace.
Educational Opportunities
We offer educational opportunities to learn more about the lavender plant and its various uses. You might have the chance to participate in workshops, demonstrations, or guided tours that provide insights into lavender cultivation, harvesting techniques, and the process of creating lavender-based products. Keep an eye on our event page or Instagram!
Lavender Products
In addition to the U-Cut experience, we plan to have an on-site gift shop later in the season, where you can purchase a wide range of lavender products. These can include essential oils, soaps, lotions, candles, culinary lavender, and other lavender-infused items. It's an excellent opportunity to take home some lavender-based goodies and gifts. If you are a vendor looking to sell our quality products, please email us!
