Love is In the Air...

Well it is the day before Valentines Day... Because of this, February is the month we associate with love and romance. For those of you not in a relationship you can still be thankful for all that you love.  My thoughts on this cold blustery day are thinking about how much I love spring and summer, also  how much I love my job... running a small soap business and a lavender farm.  I love planning and scheduling the upcoming NY Lavender Festival and watching it all come together.  I love coming up with new and exciting ideas for the year ahead.  And I love this time of year to regroup, refresh and rest up for the busy time ahead.  

With the temperatures falling below zero, and wind chills 20-30 below, I am definetly loving the fact that I am home working on my computer today!

Happy February everyone.  

Olfactory Farm, well rested and abloom with ideas

January is about organization!  Organizing thoughts, ideas, paperwork, emails, the house etc.  This is the month to set things in motion for the upcoming season.  A whole lot of planning goes into the farm, shop and the annual NY Lavender Festival. Last year we incorporated the new and  exciting event "A Taste of Provence" which will be even bigger and better this year!  

Olfactory also participates in the New York Sterling Renaissance Festival for seven weekends in July and August.  You can find us in the Lavender Shoppe and stock up on all your herbal needs.  While the  plants in the field use this time to "sleep" we are wide awake with anticipation.  The dates for this years Festival are Saturday July 9th and Sunday July 10th.  The kick off celebration "A Taste of Provence" is Friday July 8th!  Check back often for exciting updates...
