Winter at Sauvie Island Lavender Farm

For those of you new to Sauvie Island Lavender Farm, we are located on one of the largest 
inland islands in the USA.  Sauvie Island is only a few minutes from Portland, Oregon.  
We are a mix of farm lands, nursery lands and protected fish and wildlife lands.  
Sauvie Island receives around two million visitors a year.  That's more than Yosemite 
National Park.  Folks like to visit for a number of reasons.  Favorite activities are 
visiting our sandy beaches, birding, hunting, boating, and visiting the wonderful farms 
and farm markets for fresh picked produce and of course, lavender.  In the dead of winter 
is when we get creative here on the farm.  This is when we head up to the workshop and 
create our wonderful lavender products.  This week, we are working on sewing eye masks 
and matching sachets to sell here at Local Harvest and stock up for our season when the 
farm is open to the public.  Next week we will be busy creating lavender bath salts for 
our customers.  Then it's on to lotions, soaps, massage and bath oils and more!  
RECIPE
Here is a quick and easy lavender recipe that is perfect for a Sunday brunch or tea.
1 Lemon Blueberry Muffin Mix prepared according to directions.
1 Tablespoon dried culinary lavender (any angustifolia or Provence) lightly ground.
Just add the lavender into the batter and bake according to the muffin mix directions.
Enjoy!
