Market Friday... Lavender Fields, Forever



<br>

*<center>Seven Oaks Lavender Farm is a small family-owned and operated lavender farm in Catlett, Virginia. It is not far from Washington, DC... so close, yet so very far apart. It is only June, yet, it was rumored that the lavender fields were in bloom, if only in the first stages, their buds flowering, rubbing together, and permeating the summer air with the intoxicating smell. Oh, beauty! Is there any better way to spend a warm, summer day? To be honest, it is the unofficial start of summer, with the Memorial Day weekend having just passed. Officially it begins on June 21, the date of the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere. </center>*

<br>

<center>It seems even the grass wasn't tamed yet, nor weed-whacked or mowed. I am not sure that spring was quite finished, but, lavender waits for no one.</center>

*<center>Today is #MarketFriday initiated by @dswigle (Denise, that's me!!) Join me as we share our markets across the globe. I always look forward to seeing what you send me! It is amazing to see the different markets and cultures of our friends here on Hive. Come. Sit down. Relax. Enjoy the shortest trip around the world you ever experienced, taking in a market from somewhere different than what you have. And always remember #MarketFriday loves you!</center>*


<br>

<center>On May 14th of this year, Mother's Day was celebrated in over 40 countries. It is a day of honoring the mother of the family. I happen to be in that club. One of my girls, the youngest, in fact, purchased a season pass (another one!) for $25.00, but, this time it is for the Lavender Fields. Hence, it is nicknamed *The Purple Pass.* The pass allows you unlimited visits for the season. Each time you come, you may bring a guest, and, you and each get 20 free stems. I have gotten a nice supply of them so far. Last year, I dried a lot of lavender. Right now, I am picking the English lavender, the culinary one. The uses are endless! In the photo below, it is the French Lavender that is in front of the orange flowers.</center>

<br>

<center>I realize that #MarketFriday is a challenge at times. Many people are using memories, from days gone by or perhaps markets that they haven't posted. In these trying times, I am happy to see people still partaking in #MarketFriday. Use what photos you have. If you get to go shopping, we would love to see! Don't forget to take photos - whether it be the grocery, art galleries, or even the pharmacy, wherever money is exchanged for a service or for merchandise. Don't forget to use the hashtag #MarketFriday and @dswigle.</center>

<br>

*<center>It has been said that the Lavender Farm started right outside Grandma's kitchen and grew from there. If you are interested in the history of Seven Oaks Farm, you can read it [here.](https://www.sevenoakslavenderfarm.com/story)</center>*

<br>

<center>![20230602_134429.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/dswigle/EoK6qz6TwVFD2TGo6hk249wPPEJA6ANH6XfZZCkFHaiyc3XNZCMHghvKgyxj52jw3sT.jpg)</center>

<br>

*<center>This is the owner, giving us a quick how-to on how to select the lavender and how to cut it properly so it continues to produce nicely. Thank you! I learned a lot of small things I never knew I needed to know about lavender! It was fun!</center>*

<br>

<center>![IMG_5129.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/dswigle/23tbRQPumbaeQ9a76dq5jMX4729ng6saNyv6S6wFCjrWZ4SjZPwMCRu9mjoXcNmnGdLQZ.JPG)</center>

<br>

*<center>This farm is all about the lavender, but, they also grow many other flowers that have medicinal/culinary uses. I am not that experienced in it, but, I got to learn a little bit. Maybe a little bit more than that. They offer up lavender cupcakes, lavender lemonade...the list goes on and on.</center>*


<br>

<center>![20230602_134019.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/dswigle/23tvgjeJFntDiHf6eT7xHzbXKq8CT3xdpqSYNsbkooegoPUYz4bMRrWv3oCa9b2bc1DTY.jpg)</center>

<br>


*<center>This is the store on the property. Oh, yes! Everything lavender! Essential oils. Truth. French Lavender is the one they use for the essential oils. It is starting to bloom. I am ready for it. The family makes most of what is in the shop, and friends and neighbors help out. It takes a village, yes? The first time you come (if you have a pass) you check in here and after that, they pretty much remember you.</center>*

<br>


<center>![20230603_131842.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/dswigle/EoGzntsFgJ8bZrhFwH6kofZn1ax6GWDaDUZNeSAEJQn7sjLQ5fEdRDrq31hPheaz7QK.jpg)</center>

<br>


<center>Tea cake mix, jam, essential oil, lavender oil, things you never imagined. It is a small shop, but, it has a massive amount of merchandise. Best part? Nobody bothers you while you are shopping, but, will be happy to give you information or answer your questions. It's lovely.</center>


<br>

<center>![20230603_131816.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/dswigle/EoK7HSaGRZYBLxVjdAoRgYLrqSG1HmSN1wzg8zMpk3XYC3KudGp2nfR9sDtoLng7QDq.jpg)</center>

<br>


*<center>There were samples of tea and I have to admit, I love the Lavender Chai tea...cinnamon, cloves, peppercorns, and a delicate touch of lavender. It is the nuance of it that makes it taste so special.</center>*

<br>

<center>![20230603_131925.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/dswigle/EowHzNLEjgwRSwuWfsdg4djVjWFR5iYEWzJ9eGD3Qkvifd1ATaxVQY6j1ZXkNnVB4MJ.jpg)</center>

<br>

<center>They had many good books on using lavender and the many ways to take advantage of its properties. You walk around in a peaceful stupor, Kidding, of course, but, I can feel the calming effects of being surrounded by all that lavender.</center>



<center>![Center Crest.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/dswigle/XI0UMGw3-Center20Crest.png)</center>



*<center>It is always good to get out and do a few things, do things you have never done, or go back and redo what you have done. I learned a lot today about lavender and other medicinal flowers. Who knew? Not me. I am always learning and today is no different.</center>*

It's a pity, we don't have such flower fields. Our land are so scarce, recently they said they'll be no more horsing around. Isn't this sad?

Well, at least I got my cashback today. Cutoff time seems to be earlier and earlier each week but I'm spending more for preparing for next month.

I don't know. I still hope I get a chance to ride a horse somewhere once in my life time. 
I'm hoping to join a team to participate in a pickleball tournament. I sort of help put one together but put myself as a reserve or may be out of the team because I am playing for a while so lacking some training.

This farm is so comfy and I love lavender as well, but in this country where I live they don't grow it much. What's a nice tea? I only try the basic tea without those flowers like lavender, it sounds like I should try it out now.

Beautiful flower photos as always! Lavender is one of my favorite herbs and I have planted in my balcony and in [a community garden](https://ecency.com/hive-140635/@akipponn/the-community-garden-is-almost) I maintain.

I liked the offer of the lavender farm that 20 lavenders are including in a ticket. I'm definitely happy to have this souvenir.

Thank you for hosting market Friday, @dswigle! I look forward to read about shopping experiences around the world. Here is mine:

You get to pick twenty stems each time, so I have been 6 times and twenty (20) each time. Plus! I get to take a friend each time I go! (who also gets 20 stems) The cupcakes and lemonade are delicious! 

For the lemonade, you put together water, lemon juice, fresh lavender, and simple syrup. I serve it ice cold, It reduces stress and allows you to sleep better. I never have trouble sleeping, but people that do speak of it fondly. The cupcakes are unique and many times paired with lemon and honey. 

I think that was a lovely gift from my daughter! She always has such unique ideas! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Cupcakes with lemon and Honey. Hmmmm. I am getting the feeling that lavender has some combination with lemon, hasn't it? Like the taste enhancer. I am thinking if it is just the taste or the aroma too that makes the combination.

After collecting the stems, have you planted them in your garden? How they turned out?

This is an awesome visit you had ! The little shop made me super curious about the lavender tea, I never tried some and I guess that I would love it :) The place is really beautiful and as I come from the south of France, lavender fields are in my heart forever, as you said ^^

We must be quite connected as two days ago, we also had a lavender experience with an old guy selling the plants that he grows near Paris, we bought him three of those lavender-filled balls. Since then it's been fragrant all over the house and it's truly divine !

How nice!! I like how they put their sachets together, the sweet smell of the very distinct, light, and freshness of it. You will always be about the lavender! You cannot help it. 

My house smells heavenly. I love it.

I think lavender is divine! I don't need to calm down but, it still gives me a sense of relaxation. I hope you do try it. I have the lavender flowers/buds and I put them in sachets around the house. It has a pleasant smell and leaves a subtle scent behind.

Lavender is a great reason to write in #MarketFriday.  It seems everyone loves lavender, it's become a trend, especially photos in the lavender field. Romantic girls, too bad we can't take scented photos yet... but they can be scented afterward if done on paper.
I was surprised by your choice, you are surprising with each new post, very nice! The membership that allows you to walk in those gardens, past the rows of blooming lavender, makes all the money and I'm glad you know how to appreciate what you get. A pleasure to read your lavender story and the photos are even more so. 
In Romania lavender growing has only recently been introduced, so I have the opportunity quite rarely to come across such a farm. I mean with one like you showed here, I have no chance, because I don't think it exists, so your post allowed me to see that it may exist... somewhere else. 

Thank you, Denise. I hope you enjoy the sight, color, and scent of lavender for a long time. I don't know how long the season is.

I have been lacking inspiration, in fact, I think it is running away from me now, however, I have tried something: [The Market Place](https://ecency.com/hive-196308/@bluemoon/the-market-place)

*Buna ziua! Sper că ai avut o zi bună!*

I know, it is night now, but, that sentence about night was getting too complicated without a translator. :) You know what I meant, yes?

Lavender is the new *it* scent, perhaps it has always been, but, seems much more prevalent now. It is all about the Lavender! The amazing field in France, I remember them so well. It is those I dream about, not here. It has much time to become all grown up. :) Still, it has all the makings of a beautiful field. And it definitely has the scent that we all look for. I actually enjoy going to the smaller farms, they are usually run by whole families and I like watching how seamlessly they work together. The farms like these have been around for quite a few years, along with the fruit orchards where you go and pick your own. The first one I ever went to, I laughed, thinking how we are paying them to work. :) But, the upside is that you get the fruits that you want, so it really all works out.

This particular Lavender Farm got a hard hit during Covid and is just now getting back on its feet. In a few years, their lavender will be huge, but in the meantime, we love it anyway.

I truly understand the lack of inspiration. :) But, I continue. You can take a break from it. :) Lucky you!!

Thanks always for dropping by and leaving your words, as well as dropping your post. Have a wonderful weekend!

#MarketFriday loves you!

The scent is always subtle and very calming. I have sachets all over the house, especially in the bedroom. It feels peaceful to me. Harvest season is from early June to mid-July. So they open up late May to early June. It is going to be peak season probably next week. I would say the best of the season is six weeks long. Europe, specifically France, is behind us and usually theirs starts in July, just when ours is finished. They are much cooler there.

Of course, @dswigle. The translator is "my friend"... You wrote very correctly in Romanian!

This post went to my heart because I too am an admirer of this plant and am impressed by its beauty, especially in the fields of France. I have a few bushes myself but they don't really like it in my yard, unfortunately.

>The scent is always subtle and very calming. I have sachets all over the house, especially in the bedroom.

I only have it in my bedroom, next to my pillow. It helps me fall asleep faster and more pleasantly!

I've actually never heard of businesses like this before where you get a season pass and you pick your flowers, but you seem to have a lot of them around you.  Okay, I have been to a blueberry farm before, does that really count?  I play Hay Day on my phone and I grow some of my own lavender, does that count?  

That place just looks really peaceful, plus when you add in the calming effects of lavender, it's probably almost like heaven!

There are many farms on the outskirts of the DC Metro area. The smaller farms do well with this as people will pay the small fee and it saves them from having to harvest and sell their plants. They have 9 big lavender farms here in Virginia and countless smaller ones. 

The U-pick fruit places are much the same. They could see to the grocery markets, but, the way they do it is much better. Plus fresh! 

I am sure Hay Day doesn't count. LOL 

It is truly peaceful and lovely to walk through. I have been thee 6 times already so I have lots of lavender. I have to say that it is only 15 cents a stem to buy, so you could get an armload all in one trip and make your sachets. 

Oh, yay!!! A #MarketFriday post! Thanks so much for dropping the link!

Oh wow, that is relatively cheap!  I can see how places like this might do really well outside the bigger cities.  We don't have many of those near where I live. Big Cities that is.  Detroit is probably the closest.  The other ones are just small enough that they still have a kind of rural feel to them.

Lavender is timeless. I love it for so many reasons. Of course, you know how much I adore herbs both for  purpose in healing or cuisine as well as beauty and scent. Did I ever tell you about my own Lavender Fields? A very unique African spa that I took my mother to for her 60th. It is called Indigo Fields.

All this place is very beautiful as we all know that natural things are very beautiful to man and one gets a lot of peace by visiting such places. This market is very big.

In many ways, yes. Our sale prices for the weekend (they always have special prices for the weekend ) start on Friday and usually are Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so for three days. It is the same basic thing, but, you have one day. 

It is usually the best prices of the week!

My kids love getting me passes for the farms. I do love them and it is always a great time.

There is some truth to the size of things, however, I live in the Washington, DC metro area and this is on the outskirts. So big is not unusual when you are feeding this population. But, many things are bigger for that reason. Organized because they have a lot of rules that they have to contend with and it is easier to keep it run well and organized... it just keeps the cogs running smoother. 

You are a farmer, but, you do it because you are one with the earth, you are born into it and you are passionate about it. I have to say that is a definite win on your side. The thing I loved about Europe was the simplicity, the personal touches and families handing down businesses, farmers carrying on ... 

Never be embarrassed about that, not ever. I can honestly say that many look up to you and how you live your life. You are to be envied. I can see the passion in your words. I can feel it. Never change.

Awesome! This is a very calming (and colorful) post! Well done to your daughter for treating you with such a great gift. This is really a practical gift that serves a great purpose over an extended period of time!

We always had Lavender plants in the garden in the garden of the previous house we lived in. We loved having them below the windows to get the calming effect of the lavender entering the house through the windows.

We haven't planted any Lavender where we are now...maybe it's time to do something about that! 

This farm really looks like a nice place to visit! It seems like you can find just about everything that has to do with Lavender there!

I'm glad you enjoyed our visit to the far and I hope you will enjoy many more visits!

Thank you for sharing this with us!

You will [find my post for this week](https://peakd.com/hive-196308/@jacoalberts/market-friday-getting-my-phone-back) here.

How nice that you planted it right below your window! That is a brilliant idea and I may do that at the Shore House. I have used up all the garden space there is here!~ I do love to use all that I have. Over there, it has acres and I will never plant that much!  :) I would still have to care for it, otherwise, I might!

I hope you plant it again! 

They do have an extensive collection of all things Lavender, don't they? I have had 6 visits so far! That is a lot of free lavender, and the guest I can bring each time also gets the same 20 stems!  Thank you for taking the time to read and comment!

I hope your week has been good. 

#MarketFriday loves you!

Yes, your post served as a great reminder that we don't have Lavender here. Since we moved in here, we just maintained the garden here. We have put in some Spekboom though, but now Lavender is next on the list!

I'm glad you are enjoying your gift from your daughter so much! I'm sure it fills your daughter with just as much joy as well when she can see how much you enjoy it!

Oh I love this post SO much. I love lavender for starters, but oh a farm dedicated to these amazing flowers?? How incredible is that? Your pictures are stunning. It makes me want to dance, or cry, just seeing all the incredible colors and knowing how many bees and butterflies this lovely place must support. It’s just breathtaking.

My favorite lavender plant is at the end of its life. I have encouraged it for years, though it is past its prime. This week, like the owner of an aging dog who gets a puppy to help keep it young, I planted some new lavender seeds around it. Now it will have some little friends!

Thank you for hosting Market Friday, one of my favorite Hive communities!

You are definitely the sweetest! I LOVE your comment so much! You always make me feel so good about posting! Virginia has 9 major Lavender Farms and the one I am going to is a small, family-owned little garden that started outside Grandma's kitchen door. The bees are not as abundant as the butterflies! That surprised me, but I bet those numbers will be flip-flopped this week.

Oh, yes!! The puppy comparison! That is definitely so true, isn't it? Why wouldn't it work for flowers!?? Thank you for always stopping by and leaving your words. You are the best!

Wow everything about lavender was there. From books, teas, flowers and a lot more. It so good to be there and they are having a good promotional idea that you can have free lavender along your entrance fee.

👍 dswigle

properties (23)vote details (1)

@dswigle · Jun 9 '23

I think that must be an industry standard around here. There are many farms in the outlying areas and there are always bonus freebies with your entrance fee. I suppose it would be hard to harvest and have people in there, so it is a win-win situation. 

If you read about the tulip farm I went to a couple of months ago, you also got ten stems every time you went. They lost money on me, I got my Passport there also and got flowers on my way home almost every day. The tulips in my house and the other places I left them were amazing!

My house smells amazing right now!

After a tedious day at bank, shopping in mall and running around over 5k steps in all I am knackered, no photographs as this is a hot run organizing my son preparation for his travel _I'm more exited than he is I think..._

Now relaxing to enjoy visiting flowers over the pond in bloom, lavender a trusty old faithful to use _foot spa comes to mind!_

Oh, yes! A foot spa would be nice, right about now. I am ready for a little pampering. I am so glad I could make your day. That just made mine!  :)

Off to stay with friends in New Zealand, meet family he has not seen since he was knee high. Now to find right gear to kit him out without going overboard for a five month stay, _neither of us like shopping, sight for sore eyes._ Trip starts on 21st June, final count down, his 1st trip out the country.

My younger son almost got going just before lockdowns hit, they are saving to try again. 

With all the restrictions, this has taken some time jumping through hoops from our side of the pond.

Will write again soon, once the dust has settled and we do get to somewhere of interest. Aloe flowers now starting to bloom, next stop possibly to see their beauty around town. 

Slowing down the bones remind one too often..., you ain't what you were at 40 or 50!

I'm so glad you had a great time at Seven Oaks Lavender Farm! It sounds like you learned a lot and had a lot of fun. I love the idea of a Purple Pass, and I'm sure you'll get a lot of use out of it.

I've never been to a lavender farm, but I've always wanted to go. The pictures you shared are beautiful, and the lavender cupcakes and lemonade sound delicious! I'm also intrigued by the idea of using lavender for medicinal purposes. I'll have to do some research on that.

They have lavender everything, they would not be able to escape the tea!  :)  Lavender is safe for tea, but not all should be consumed. I use English. Fresh or dried blossoms work. It carries a subtle floral flavor on the finish of your sip. 

Quick and easy: pour 1 cup (250 ml) of water over 1/2 teaspoon of loose lavender buds letting it steep for a few minutes. I sometimes put a little honey in it!

You will have to tell me what you think of it if you try it.

@dswigle  Being in such a distinguished place, is like spending a few days in a paradise, full of lavenders, with their exquisite aromas, I imagine that the lavender stems are taken from there, and then planted on a large scale and get the lavender perfume, I correct me if I'm wrong, seeing such beautiful gardens is as if the great essence of lavender reached my nose. I like such a distinguished publication, with such beautiful photos, in Venezuela in two places I can observe said landscapes of plantations in the Merida state and in Caripe Monagas state, but not with lavender. Lavender is a plant that also offers peace, tranquility, I have seen it in envelopes in Venezuela to prepare infusions and tea, but not in plantations.

They have little stores on the plantations where they sell their products. It is another way to support themselves. Have you ever had lavender tea?

I would like to have lavender here, because a tea is very beneficial for health, as far as I know, it is very good for stress and calms the mind, which I need so much, I only consume green tea for this, as I would like to verify how healthy it is to drink lavender tea, for now I calm my stress by doing yoga. I wish you much success, I hope to visit us more often through our publications.

That was so nice of your daughter to get you the purple Pass, I have always loved seeing lavender and smelling it of course, perhaps its the color I have also always loved blues and purples 
I also never knew it could be made into tea, perhaps because i have never liked hot drinks and hence not looked at tea flavors LOL


here is my post for this week  https://peakd.com/hive-194913/@tattoodjay/market-friday-the-clam-bar

It really has been nice to have these passes being given to me by the kids. The bonus of getting free stems with each visit has been great! Blues and purples are my favorite! Blue in nature is still unusual.

I was surprised to see the tea (last year, I think) for the first time, but, I have tried it and I found it very relaxing. I had never heard of it before. 

Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving your words - dropping your post!

I have never seen a lavender plant or flower in real life but I love the scents sold in stores. I’m sure it will smell even better directly from the plant. Thanks for showing us these beautiful flowers

The entire field is a blissful event as you walk through. Lavender plants aren't particularly beautiful, but they have an amazing perfume. 

Thanks for stopping by and leaving your words.

Seven Oaks Lavender Farm is a joy to behold, this sight is just mind-blowing and I can't help imaging walking around here, gazing the fresh air around nature.

It's so thoughtful of your daughter to get you a season pass to visit this place to celebrate you on mother's Day. I wish you all the best in celebrating more of it.

Here is a link to my post

It was so awesome that my daughter did that! It was a wonderful Mother's Day that will keep on giving.  I love walking through the Lavender Farm, the scent wafts through the air, and it is such a calming effect. Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving your words - and dropping a post!

Good to see you!

Lavender!! What a beauty! 
And lavender cupcakes?! Lavender lemonades?! I would want to try that! 
The shop seems small but has a lot of stuff! I think I will go out bringing something from there 😄
The pass is so convenient! I would love that too!

Hello! Hello! One of my favorite posters/commenters! 

Lavender is so fine, isn't it? I just found out last year that you can make tea! Seriously! So many people didn't know that! The lavender cupcakes are divine! And the lemonade is refreshing. I had it for the first time this year!

The shop is a cottage on the property, but super cool! It has everything and the people are so nice. They teach you everything you ever wanted to know - and then some. They make most of their products themselves, or have help from their relatives and Neighbors! Yes!

It takes a village!

I love the pass. I can go when I want, it is so very awesome!!! Each time, twenty stems AND I can take a guest each time who also gets 20 free ones!

Thanks for stopping by and leaving your words!

The pass is already so nice, and getting stems each time you visit is even more nicer! What’s more awesome is the entire village will help you. 
I want the lavender tea tbh, I can imagine it for an afternoon tea. 😅 
Sooo since you have the lavenders now, you can make the tea at home? 😅😌

I totally forgot to paste my post link, here’s mine https://peakd.com/hive-196308/@wittyzell/one-shall-always-pass-the-atami-shopping-district-or

They seem really dedicated to keeping the plants thriving :) Are you going to get some seeds for your garden?

They are dedicated and of course, the last few years have been tough on them. I have already gotten seeds and I have a few plants of lavender, although nothing to write home about.

Still, it is nice to support the small farmers that operate around here. There are many of them. 

Thank you for the curation!

Lavender is one of my favourite smells, I keep a sacket by my bed to help me sleep. I have a pot with some but I have a special ability :(  and I've lost several plants already, this is my third trial.

I actually think they are hard to grow! The Lavender Farm replaces hundreds of them every year. He said that is normal! I couldn't believe it. But, I saw lots of new plants and he said it is normal for all farms to lose some every year. 

I do love having some in my bedroom, it soothes the soul, I think! Thank you for stopping by and leaving your words.
