From the beginning, they planted trees to add character to the property, setting the stage for what would eventually become a budding lavender farm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1025\" height=\"1366\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cliftonhill.com\/falls_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2004\/07\/lav1-1025x1366.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-62036\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inspiration-and-beginnings\">Inspiration and Beginnings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lavender has always held a special place in Jill&#8217;s heart, inspired by her mother&#8217;s love for the color purple and a particularly stubborn lavender plant that refuses to stop growing, even from a crack in the concrete near their farmhouse. This resilient plant symbolizes the family&#8217;s enduring commitment to their land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-establishing-the-farm\">Establishing the Farm<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With a background in recreation, event planning, and food service, Jill was well-prepared to take on the challenge of running Lavender Haze Farm. She planted the first rows of lavender in 2021, driven by a desire to create something of her own while ensuring the land stayed in the family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1025\" height=\"1366\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cliftonhill.com\/falls_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/lavendar7-1025x1366.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-62033\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-growing-lavender\">Growing Lavender<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lavender Haze Farm cultivates about eight different varieties of lavender, experimenting to see which ones thrive best in the local climate. This diversity allows the farm to offer a range of products, from fresh and dried bundles to essential oils and hydrosols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-challenges-and-joys-of-lavender-farming\">The Challenges and Joys of Lavender Farming<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lavender farming is not without its challenges. Timing the harvest correctly is crucial, as the optimal moment for cutting lavender differs for bundles versus distilling. Despite these challenges, Jill finds joy in the learning process, supported by the Ontario Lavender Association&#8217;s workshops and community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1025\" height=\"1366\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cliftonhill.com\/falls_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2004\/07\/lav2-1025x1366.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-62043\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-sustainable-practices\">Sustainable Practices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lavender Haze Farm prides itself on eco-friendly practices.
