During the winter and spring months, our farm store is open during public workshops or events. Otherwise, we are only open by appointment. Please reach out to schedule a visit.

This June we are celebrating Lavender Growers Month and our new lavender field’s one year anniversary!

Last June, several of our amazing friends and family helped us plant more lavender on this historic ranch 💜 It’s great to see how much they’ve grown in such a short time. Blooms are already appearing.

Lavender takes a few years to reach full maturity; the first year one can expect no more than 2 bunches per plant, but by the third year, one can expect 8 to 10 bunches! (A bunch = 60 to 100 stems)

We can’t wait to invite you out to this field in the future! We see lots of Purple Potential with this new lavender.💜

In the meantime, we will be having a U-Pick in our mature lavender and lavender labyrinth at Sierra Shadows Farm on July 5th! Register online - link in bio.

Another breathtaking week in Provence filled with good food, new experiences to share with new friends, and so much fun 💜. As many of you know, I lived, studied and even worked in a tiny parfumerie in France when I was younger. I taught French for years at our local junior college before I planted my first lavender in 2018. 💜 As I’ve always said, “If I can’t live in Provence, I will bring it here.” Sometimes though, I still need to fill my soul with some singing cicadas and swaying olive trees. With the help of my dear friend, we have introduced several groups of people to the wonderment and beauty that is Provence. This week was as lovely as the last few. Photo captions: 1.

We weren’t surprised that the lavender labyrinth is still not quite in bloom but we WERE surprised to find thousands of lavender volunteers in the pathways!! (We thought they were weeds!)

These babies have been carefully removed and repotted with love by my daughter 💕 Because these are the results of cross pollination (we have seven different cultivars of lavandula angustifolia or “true lavender” or “lavande officinale”) we can’t know exactly what they are! So, we will simply be calling them our Sierra Shadows Surprise Lavender! 💜 We will have these gifts from the garden available soon!

Ready, steady, look at those girls grow!

Peeked into some of our hives today and saw lots of activity (and brood)!! We even caught a glimpse of one of our queens!

World Bee Day was celebrated globally on May 20…but we continue the celebration by reminding people that ALL bees matter! Yes, these honey bees 🐝 bring us joy but our native pollinators are struggling!

Here are some things you can do in your backyard:
• Plant Native Flowers 🌼 so you can provide constant food sources by choosing a variety of native wildflowers that bloom at different times throughout the year.

• Bee Pesticide-Herbicide Free 🪴 Limit or eliminate the use of insecticides and herbicides, or apply them sparingly if necessary.

• Bee Wild 🐝 Avoid over-tidying your yard. Many native bees nest in bare soil, dead twigs, or hollow stems. Also, green lawns are food deserts for our native pollinators! Consider allowing that lawn to get a little wild!

Our Lavender labyrinth is full of surprises today:

First, I’ve found several baby plants in the paths. I will attempt to transplant them as they all have decent root structures. Only problem is that they may be different from their parent plant as they come from seed! It will be fun figuring out what they are 🤪

The next surprise came with a warning cry! The killdeer are back with yet another nest: this time in our Twickel Purple lavender. I always hope for the best for these babies as they are exposed to the elements, including hawks and our barn cats. 😔

Spring is always full of surprises here in our beautiful valley. 💕

✨A YEAR OF PROGRESS✨

Around this time last year, the Sierra Shadows team took on the challenge of turning a field of sage brush into a beautiful lavender field. Here are some photos of the process, including drainage tests, clearing the property, installing our irrigation systems, and the 3,000 lavender starts that are starting to green up. We are looking forward to spending lots of time among the blooms this summer! 💜🪻🪻

Yesterday’s dramatic skies were in stark contrast with the emerging bed of sunflowers 🌻 These sunflowers will be part of the late summer early fall forage for our bees and other native pollinators.

Paired with our lavender, these sunflowers also represent my journey from French instructor to ag-entrepreneur. What started with a dream to bring a little bit of Provence here through my company The Sunflower of Provence has evolved into something much more meaningful for me, and hopefully, for everyone who comes to experience what we’ve created.

Side-note: I am slowly merging my two businesses and their websites to create a more streamlined and easy experience for my customers. You can still find my tablecloths and French linens on @thesunflowerofprovence but I’ll be moving them to my lavender site.

Here’s to a productive and color-filled future 🌻💜

We loved hosting Silver Anchor Farm for the first of three informative and hands-on workshops this season!

On Saturday, she discussed what and how to use natural products like hydrosols and essential oil in cleaning products. Participants enjoyed our tea and scones while making their own scrub blends to take home.

We hope everyone enjoyed the session! We look forward to welcoming Anna back later this season…when the lavender is in bloom!

Behind-the-scenes, Part 1: The Not-So-Glamorous Part of Growing Lavender: Weeding

A weed is simply an unwanted plant. According to the USDA, UNR Extension, and the Nevada Department of Agriculture, weeds are considered either a "nuisance" or "noxious." Both categories of weed can impact soil, water, forage and crop yields, as well as displace wildlife and native plants. It's important to know the difference and how to mitigate these impacts.

Yes, we pull most of our weeds by hand because we are all about the pollinators - both our domestic honey bees AND the native pollinators that love lavender as much as we do. We use an integrated weed management program through prevention, physical or mechanical control (like weed-free mulch), and biological controls (like our sheep). When we have to use herbicides, our first line of defense is a vinegar-salt mixture.

PS We also planted a native hedgerow to help mitigate seed spread from weeds into our lavender. The plants are still itty-bitty, but as they grow, we will share photos!

Now you know! It's not glamorous, but it is rewarding!

Preparing our bees for success! Did you know that spring is the time of year that hives swarm?

Beekeepers like us try to minimize natural swarming by manipulating the hive through a process called splitting. Here we have begun the process of a split. Stay tuned as we wait and see if our efforts were futile or not! 😂

PS yes, that’s dried lavender in our smoker!

My time in Brittany, France as a teenager sparked my love for European butter. My host mother’s crepes, made with generous slabs of butter, left a lasting impression - especially the stunning dish that held the butter. I recently shared this memory with Michelle Mulligan, and she crafted a replica just for me! Now, she’s offering a pottery class where we can create our own. Join us on April 11 from 9am to noon as Michelle leads the way in crafting the perfect butter dish.

I know I’ve been MIA lately! But, we’ve been working on our lavender!

With all this sunshine ☀️ and warm temps here in Northern Nevada, we lavender growers are having to adapt and get things ready for what looks like an early season!

With that said, it’s pretty much guaranteed that we will get some weather - even though I’d like to think that my bit o’ Irish ancestry would bring me luck 🍀🤷‍♀️🤣

Have a Happy St. Patrick’s Day ☘️
Enjoy your day! …and please 🙏 don’t spray!
…Our native pollinators and our domestic honeybees are out collecting nectar and pollen!!

Another magical afternoon at the Minden Mill 🪄

Guests learned about tea blending, lavender, and intention setting. They then created their own unique sipping tea and bath tea blends. Additionally, they were treated to private tarot and tea leaf readings. ☕️

Thank you to Chelsea and StaySea for pouring their knowledge and passion into our cups. Thank you to the Minden Mill for the beautiful venue, as well as their unique mocktails and cocktails. Finally, thank you to Sierra Chef for providing tasty snacks for our guests 💕

“Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy. I choose joy over despair. Not because I have my head in the sand, but because joy is what the earth gives me daily and I must return the gift.”

Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants

…Imagine a world without man-made wars and patriarchal societies. Imagine a world led by women, mothers, life-givers. That’s a world I want to live in.

My daughters gifted me “Braiding Sweetgrass” and “The Serviceberry” by Robin Wall Kimmerer. These writings and reflections on our relationship with nature , science, and with each other, through an ecological consciousness based on indigenous teachings, has transformed the lens upon which I see the world. I only wish more people, including this world’s so-called leaders, could see the damage we continually perpetrate on our lands, our environments, and on each other.

We are still wrapped in winter’s arms, but spring is just around the corner!

We have two back-to-back events slated for this March: a Spring Pottery workshop with Michelle Mulligan and a special 4-part class on The Secrets of Tea Divining where we will teach you about tea blending and tea-leaf reading at the Minden Mill. We will be using our lavender in both workshops!

A few spots are still available for both - see link in bio!

Oh, and even though we are excited for the spring, let’s keep praying for snow! We need more of it this winter!!! ❄️

Did you know snow is actually one of the best things for your lavender in the winter?

Because snow is 90-95% trapped air, it acts like a cozy blanket over the soil and plant - keeping temperatures stable even when it’s frigid outside. Here in northern Nevada, our (typically) cold, dry winters and temperature swings from day to night are exactly what makes snow cover so valuable.

For lavender, stability is key - it’s not the cold that kills it, it’s the constant freeze-thaw cycles. A consistent layer of snow buffers our temperature swings and shields the crown from our drying high-desert winter winds.

So, the next time a storm rolls through the Sierras and blankets your garden, don’t feel sorry for your lavender - it’s actually pretty happy under all that snow!
