The Beautiful Lavender Farm Hiding In Plain Sight In Arizona That You Need To Visit
Spring has definitely arrived and is here to stay in the state. If you’re looking for a great weekend getaway, then a visit to the pine-lined roads in Pine might be just the spot for you! Known for some spectacular scenery and beautiful hiking trails, make your visit here a relaxing one with a stop at a lavender farm!
This is the Pine Creek Lavender Farm, an idyllic little farm with a relaxing atmosphere and a unique crop: lavender!
You’ll find about 5,000 lavender plants dotted across the property in three varieties, including two culinary lavenders. Just imagine how amazing the farm smells when the bushes are flowering!
According to the farm’s website, the drier air and mild temperatures help create lavender more abundant in oils and scents than you might find in other areas. Well, there’s only one way to find out...
The farm sells a variety of lavender-based products, including lotions, oils, and scrubs, as well as pure essential oil and a lavender-based natural insect repellent.
In the fall and winter months, Pine Creek Lavender Farm hosts cooking classes so you can learn how to make bread, chutneys, and desserts while incorporating lavender into the dish.
Pine Creek Lavender Farm is located at 4223 Pine Creek Canyon Road in Pine, a short distance off Highway 87. The farm opens for the season on Saturday, May 5, 2018. You can find details about the farm’s hours of operation, products, events, and more by visiting their website or Facebook page.
