The Lavender Harvest

I'm just a little bit behind it has been 2 months since the lavender harvest, feeling naughty it has taken me so long to post about it here in the blog. The lavender harvest was the most fantastic day! We had loads of lovely people come out and help, only a few casualties with men cutting themselves. Here are a few photos...




we had cute little helpers! 



ALL PICKED, looking very bare!


there where 4 fages full


the girls are picking grass out of the flowers


the next day young Tycho went with Ben and Rebecca to distill the flowers 


he got to jump on the flowers  


here they are all ready to go make some oil

   
go the green machine


and an hour later around 2L of pure essential oil arrived 


the best smelling batch to date.
