Out of respect for our environment, neighbors, families, friends, guests, and valued customers, Lion Springs Lavender Farm uses green, sustainable farming practices. We take great care to be good stewards of the land by not using chemicals. Plus, we use our own natural spring water from the farm’s underground well to irrigate the lavender so there’s no added chlorine or other additives found in munincipal water. In addition, we maintain and improve the ecosystem around us by having bee hives for natural cross pollination; natural wood chips for mulch fir the soil with organic matter;  promoting wildlife such as owl nests in the California Oak Trees, as well as water for bobcats so they catch the gophers for us so we don’t use any toxic substances to poison animals and fish in the local food chain. Although organic farming hand-weeding is extra labor, and the cost of organic farming is expensive, we are happy to maintain and improve our local environment for future generations.

The result is a beautiful, healthy, natural, organic lavender grown on our “green” farm. Enjoy culinary organic lavender from Lion Springs Lavender Farm.
