The activity we signed up for was very informative and fun. So pretty to see and very aromatic. They had a family oriented event and many people making their way in. Parking was good and organized with handicapped accessible parking nearest the entrance. Everyone was quite friendly as well as informative. There were other artisans showing and selling unusual hummingbird feeders, italian pastries which incorporated lavender, lavender lemonade, lavender cookies & other fine handmade items. The tour consisted of learning the various lavenders they use for cooking, making lotions and oils. We even had an opportunity to make a lavender infused sugar scrub which actually tasted great but really meant to use as a scrub. Nothing was artificial. We learned about the timing to harvest as well as how long it takes and how long a plant survives before it out lives itself. The farm is an Organic farm and they also grow Loofah's they sell and instruct usage on. It's very interesting learning about Loofah's as well. The tour lasted about 3 hours which also included a hands on activity at the end of the tour when we went back to the field and learned how to harvest our very own bunch of lavender. Everyone participating had a great time as walked away smelling lavender heavenly. They have a small gift shop which they plan on expanding. Everything in shop comes from their farm. Their website includes more info on various events they plan to host. Prices are good and Lavender makes great gifts. If you are in the area and they are hosting an event try to get out there, otherwise this is a working farm so you must be careful not to hurt the lavenders. They deserve the 5 Star...
Read moreThis was our first Harvest Host farm and Moonbeam Farm set the bar high. They were so incredibly accommodating, offering us electricity for $10, free wifi, and a full guided tour of their operation. We enjoyed learning about their organic products and how the Loofahs were made. Their country store is beautiful, full of home made products like organic Lavender essential oil, Loofahs, scrubs, lotions, soap, etc. We highly recommend their custom blend of Herbs de Provence. Our cat gave the owner TWO slow blink kisses even though she doesn't like people who aren't us (and us only part of the time!) We highly recommend this beautiful farm that is only a mile and half off of Interstate 5. You won't be disappointed...
Read moreGreat place to go, family friendly, lots of sights and smells to enjoy! They have a cute little shop with all things lavender and then some. There are great items to treat yourself with or for gift giving. I hope they get a chance to sell their items in local shops and farmers markets. The owner/farmer is a wealth of information and will take you on a tour of the farm and answer all your questions. We attended a class and learned to make lavender wands that are so fun to make and super cute! They offer several other types of classes throughout the year and I know we...
