LION SPRINGS LAVENDER FARM...the home of Carmel Caramels

*Founded in 2014*

WELCOME

Thank you for stopping by our web page. Lion Springs Lavender Farm, the home of delicious Carmel Caramels, specializes in growing culinary organic lavender and produces lavender honey from our bee hives at the farm. We are a family farm business that hand makes small batches of limited edition lavender and honey goods with fresh farm produce. Everything is produced at our female-run farm business. We’re located in the heart of Carmel Valley Village along the Carmel River in the Santa Lucia Mountains between Carmel and Big Sur, California, since 2014.

OUR MISSION

At Carmel Caramels, sourced at Lion Springs Lavender Farm, we strive to provide high-quality and sustainable agricultural products to create delicious gourmet caramel squares for our customers at our organic farm in Carmel Valley Village, California. We specialize in culinary, certified organic lavender, and calendula flowers, to cook with. We believe in ethical and responsible farming practices that benefit both the environment and the community. We have been dedicated to providing high-quality agricultural products since 2014. Our passion for agriculture drives us to constantly innovate and improve our products. We take pride in the fact that our products are sustainably sourced, hand-crafted at our certified organic farm, and we strive to be environmentally friendly. We aim to elevate human consciousness by making people happy, healthy, and harmonious with the therapeutic benefits and beauty of lavender.

CARMEL CARAMELS

Lion Springs Lavender Farm is also the home of delicious Carmel Caramels. We hand craft mouth-watering, sea-salted lavender caramels with our sweet honey right here in our permitted home kitchen at the farmhouse. We use all fresh ingredients including a small touch of our homegrown organic culinary lavender. We hope you’ll love Carmel Caramels as much as we do. A portion of  our proceeds go towards the California Mountain Lion Foundation.

Lion Springs Lavender Farm is a certified organic, female-owned, small family business. We work hard to keep our wonderful, and much appreciated, customers healthy and happy. Therefore, shop local, stay healthy, and help small businesses!

Our lavender is certified organic by  MCCO (Monterey County Certified Organic). We grow lavender using green, sustainable, organic practices to keep the environment healthy for our neighbors, friends, families, guests, customers, and local wildlife. Our bees help pollinate the neighboring fellow farms.

  

Our natural well supplies all our pure water, without chemicals, for our certified organic lavender crops.

We had our first harvest in 2018, and an even bigger ones until our most recent harvest in 2022. We had a great crop of Royal Velvet, Edelweiss, Pink Melissa, Provence, and Grosso Lavenders…

We have been able to make lavender sachets and lavender bouquets, and Carmel Caramels with our fresh organic lavender this year. We are greatly looking forward to our 2025 organic lavender crop!

Here at the farm we also make “Carmel Caramels”. We have a certified home kitchen permit to handmake Carmel Caramels right here at the farm. They taste delicious.

We wish to use a portion of profits to go to the Mountain Lion Foundation to help save the endangered California Mountain Lions.  Therefore, when you purchase our products, we can help save mountain lions together one carmel at a time!💜
