Lavender Hills of
Kentucky is a family owned and operated lavender farm in its fifth year of
operation.
Located in the northern
Kentucky county of
Bracken,
this family farm was established in 1965 with tobacco and cattle being the
main source of income. Over forty years later, our goals have changed to
include the production of lavender.
Three generations have come together to
begin
the first
commercial lavender farm in Kentucky! Lavender is a lovely flower used for many
decorative items as well as an herb used in many
recipes
from entrees to desserts.
Our first year consisted of
plans and plantings. We established our first
field with Grosso plants in June 2005 with our first harvest in June 2006.
We now have over 600 lavender plants and 15 varieties.
Our on-farm gift shop
also opened in 2006, and we carry a wide variety of lavender
products for the kitchen, bedroom and bath. We also carry cleaning
products, culinary products, and beauty products. Fresh lavender is
available during June and July, and our lovely dried bundles are available
all year round. These can be found on this site through our
gift
shop or our online store located at
Local Harvest.
We continue to increase our appearances at local festivals
and craft shows; we offer on-farm
workshops and tours; and we have constructed a certified kitchen to offer
our delicious lavender food products to you!
Visitors are welcome during
our season from the beginning of June till the end of October to view our
field and our variety bed containing 15 varieties in blues, pinks,
purples, yellows, and whites.
We are currently members of the
Herb
Growing and Marketing Network, the
River
Valley Agritourism Alliance, and
Kentucky
Proud. |

Great Gift Idea!

If
you're looking for something unusual and very flexible, our grapevine
wreath is the perfect gift.
The wreath is a hand-woven vine
decorated with ribbon and dried lavender sprigs for a unique look.
Tied on the wreath are the products
of your choice. Once the products are used, the recipient of your
gift still has a beautiful wreath to hang on their front door or wall to
welcome the season!
Available on the farm; please call to
order yours today for that special occasion.
