Lavender Fields Forever...

Used for aromatherapy, Lavender has long been known for it's calming affect. It is my favorite fragrance to scent my home. (In no small part to the calming benefit!) Early summer in Provence brings the lavender in full bloom with stunning rows of purple flowers that stretch to the foot of the mountains The air fills with the delightful fragrance. When the harvest is over, the villagers celebrate with colorful festivals. You can experience your own bit of Provence here at home. Stop in at Scented Acres in Brush Prairie (off of 503) They offer over 25 varieties and have a sweet little gift shop! They have several events during the year, check out their web site for time and dates. (scentedacreslavender.com)
