Very interesting tour. On the fields, the plants were shown and explained (and smelled!) All the people here were very nice and could answer all the questions.
Our tour guide Laura was wonderful!

Very interesting tour of all things lavender. Very friendly staff and willing to help educate you on lavender from start to finish. Interesting facts that there are three types of lavender that lend to different strengths in perfume.
A beautiful sharing

I am from the area and yet I did not know this place so close to home. Super interesting and educational visit with a touch of humor with our dear guide who is no more or less than the boss who developed his family's Enterprise. So he talks about it with love and passion.

We learned a lot, both children and adults, while having fun. My Madeleine of Proust.... cut lavender with a serpe, which I experienced in my childhood.
Nice discovery!
