Sleepy Hollow Lavender is a small family owned farm located in south eastern Washington State just 11 miles from Walla Walla. We are at the foothills of the Blue Mountains nestled among a sea of wheat fields, a year round stream, and home to many wild animals, such as deer, elk, wild turkeys, bear and cougar. Until 2004 wheat and chick peas were alternately grown on our farm. A decision was made to make a change and it was decided that because deer do not like the taste of lavender we planted lavender. Elevation was a concern regarding which lavender variety to plant and we choose Grosso and Provence because they are both hardy and would last through the winter. Our first plantings totaled 2,000 plants.

The scent of Lavender has long been associated with sweethearts and their ardor, and its effect on the libido, it turns out, is not merely wishful thinking. A scientific study by a Chicago research foundation revealed that the most arousing of all fragrances tested on its male subjects was, surprisingly, neither musk nor rose but a combination of the scents of lavender and pumpkin.
