What We’ve Been Doing
πŸŒ¬οΈπŸ’¦ This week has had its adventures! This morning the wind twirled a section of weed barrier fabric into a tangled mess. As we tried to straighten it out we were nearly taken on a magic carpet ride. Also, our water decided to take a break just when we needed it most. 

🌟 Huge shoutout to O’Connell Drilling & Supply in Brewster for coming to our rescue. Your quick response and expert service saved the day. Not all heroes wear capes; some come with drilling rigs and a can-do attitude. Thank you to Luis and Cesar!

Spent the weekend with our loving family planting lavender and soaking up the sun β˜€οΈ! Hard work paid off with rows of fragrant blooms coming soon. Wrapped it up with a special Mother’s Day celebration brunch @rockypondwinery. Feeling grateful for family time and making memories πŸ’œ

It takes a whole family and then some to pull off a farm startup. The jobs are dusty and dirty or many hours long behind a computer strategizing the latest digital marketing ads. 

Logan is mastermind behind our marketing campaigns, he’s our tractor driver, weed barrier layer, irrigation fixer and whatever else needs doing. He has a degree and neuroscience, his own entrepreneurial ambitions and he’s our cherished son. πŸ’œ

We are pretty darn blessed to have Logan, and we appreciate everything he does for MVL.

Lavandula angustifolia Royal Velvet is a particularly stunning cultivar, commonly known as English Lavender or true lavender. 

Royal Velvet boasts striking deep purple-blue flower spikes that are very fragrant. Its foliage is narrow and gray-green in color, providing a beautiful contrast to the blooms. 

Its size makes it perfect for adding to landscaping, growing to 18-24 inches tall and wide. 

Royal Velvet looks lovely in bouquets. It’s harvested for culinary purposes and adds a subtle (when used sparingly) distinctive flavor to savory dishes, desserts, beverages and baked goods. 

The essential oil extracted from its buds are used in aromatherapy for its calming and stress-relieving effects. 

It needs well draining soil, 6-8 hours of sunlight, it’s drought tolerant, and hardy in zones 5-9. 

This is our 3rd year of adding Royal Velvet to the crop. We love it!πŸͺ»πŸ’œ

Do you have a favorite lavender cultivar?
