WandWorkshop

Lavender wands can only be made with long-stemmed lavender that is fresh cut out of the field. There is a small window of time in the entire year when long-stemmed lavender is in bloom and ready for making wands and that is part of what makes them so special. The wonderful thing about lavender wands is, though they can only be made during the weeks that span the end of June, the sweet lavender scent of a wand lasts for years.

 

Phenomenal Lavender Mad Lavender Farm
Wands can only be made from fresh cut long-stemmed lavender.

The fresh lavender buds are captured within the woven stems, preserving the scent of lavender for years. Just give them a gentle squeeze and inhale the fragrance.

Weaving a lavender wand.
The stems must be fresh cut to be bendable and workable to weave a wand.

We have a variety of pretty colored ribbons to choose from to fashion a wand that is uniquely yours. Using a double faced ribbon you can manipulate a stripe into your weaving.

The workshop is rain or shine. If it’s raining, we have a Pavillion to duck into for shelter while still enjoying the pleasure of the farm.

Wreath Workshop

At the height of bloom of our French lavender, join Nicole of Spadaflora Botanical Artistry to make a wreath from freshly harvested Phenomenal long-stemmed lavender. The bloom time of this lavender is within 2 weeks, and this is a very special opportunity that only comes once a year.

As a part of our workshop, you will pick some lavender right out of the field. It takes a LOT of lavender to create this, and so the lion’s share of it will be fresh cut and ready for you to fashion into your wreath. There is nothing like the color and scent of fresh lavender and it will dry beautifully, lasting well into the next year. Nicole will guide you to adhere it properly and distribute it nicely around your 14inch wreath support.

Lavender lemonade and lavender shortbread cookies will be served to nibble and sip.

Be sure to take the time to enjoy a stroll around the farm. It is the most beautiful time of year!

This workshop is limited to 8 attendees. In the event of rain, the workshop will be held in our Workshop Space.
