The Lavender in Snow

What was been the hot topic this week in our area...really for most of the South Eastern United States? The weather...and what a crazy weather week it has been!!


The week started out warm, chilled down quick and then BAM!! Several inches of the most beautiful white powdery snow!

It was GORGEOUS in the field and all over the farm. Sort of refreshing in a way...





And luckly, in its dormancy state, the lavender didn't seem to mind too much.

We LOVE our Farm Friends

Although the lavender is sleeping right now, on the farm we are currently very busy wrapping up 2013. Finalizing year end business is one of those necessary evils before we can thoroughly dig in and plan all of our exciting 2014 activities.

One way we have made this activity bearable this year is by reflecting on our wonderful customers...you make all of the hard work worth while! One such individual that we have thought of many times lately is Sue Brown. She is not only a loyal customer but also a giving and kind friend! Not only did she make the effort to come to almost all our farm activities last year but she donated her time and energy to assist our farm when ever possible...and even often came bearing lovely lavender gifts!

Our 2013 Holiday Celebration was no exception. Fortunately, Sue was able visit us that day (with her equally wonderful daughter in tow) and had managed to find the time to "create" crochet lavender as a special gift.

  


I must say, we LOVED the handmade lavender and would like to send Sue a special "online" thank you for EVERYTHING she does for us and our small family owned farm!

If you are a frequent reader of this blog, you may have noticed that Sue Brown's daughter, Katie (both pictured above), took all of our wonderful 2013 Holiday Celebration pictures. Such a wonderful family! We are forever grateful for you...
