***Make and Take Lavender Wand***
Gather 2 or 3 of your friends - CALL to Reserve your time - Just $8.00 per person, you can pick the lavender and I will provide the ribbon and the instruction. You will learn to weave a lovely lavender wand that should hold its aroma for over a year or more. Call ahead to reserve your dedicated instruction time.
***Find and Seek along the Walking Path***
If nature is your thing - or if you are wanting to learn a little more -
or experience a little more:
Stop by the Gift Shop, check out a
“Pause along the Path, I Spy” Checkoff Sheet
and see what you can see!
I have a check list of possible sightings -
either sounds or sight or physical evidence -
and some handy identification resource aids to borrow.
Fun for the kids ( old or young ) and sitting spots along the mowed path !
Build on the List - put your names ( could be a group effort ) on the sheet - come back ever so often - get your list from me and see what else you can see and check off from the list!
*Roast Marshmallows at Owl's Lavender Farm*
On Thursday afternoons and evenings when the wind does not blow - - Owl's Lavender Patch may build a fire in the recently remodeled fire pit. For kids of all ages, old fashion family fun... let's roast some marshmallows. Marshmallows and sticks will be provided.
Call ahead if you want to check if a fire is burning. OR to REQUEST a Fire!!!!
*Bluebirds on the Farm*
Along the walking path, you should be able to see a variety of birds and I can tell you the bluebirds have been singing. Eggs of bluebirds hatched close to April 8th.
*** A second brood has hatched, June 2nd, 2025.
Any Time of the Year
Are you riding your bike, or riding your side by side, or on your skateboard?
Stop by for a rest. We have shade if you need it or come inside and sit in the climate controlled gift shed. We always have bottled water and/ or coffee.
Lavender Path
A mowed path goes all around the lavender patch and is maintained for your relaxing stroll. Check out nature's creatures on their turf. Please leave the bees to themselves. They won't sting if you are nice.
***In the Summer***
1. Old fashion fun - roasting marshmallows in the lovely fire-pit area.
2. We have three different tables that are available for a picnic lunch. All you need to do is bring the food; I will provide the seating surrounded by the peace and beauty.
3. It's fun to Feed the goldfish in the little pond. You may see the hummingbirds, the bluebirds, or maybe spy the many lizards. Swallowtail butterfly caterpillars are often munching the dill and parsley.
4. Call ahead to reserve your time and discuss details for a tea party. Several options.
5. If you are quiet enough, you may hear the wild turkeys or quail or even coyotes. Nature is left to its own devices...poison ivy loves to grow in the shady areas. So, for your protection, please no picking those plants.
6. Call ahead to schedule a private opening just for your group and get a short tour. Bring a sack lunch and enjoy a complimentary bottle of water while you enjoy the view.
