I visited the Lavender Festival last weekend, in Cherry Valley, CA. Among other displays, information and demonstrations were given regarding the many uses of lavender. I liked this window display of some of the products, including the distillation of essential oils from the lavender flowers. The copper device on the foreground table is used to distill these oils. Because of the quantities processed there at 123 Farm, a much larger distiller is used, but this made a great display. 6/11/19 Judith Sparhawk
Today I went to the local Lavender Festival in Cherry Valley, CA. There are many types of lavender there, though only a few types were in full bloom. Apparently many more will be blooming in the next few weeks. This shot was of an old piece of farm equipment out in one of the fields. I liked the rust against the lavender and green. 6/10/19 Judith Sparhawk
This is a cropped image of the piece of old farm equipment in the field at the Lavender Festival. I liked the lines of the rusty equipment, and the closer look at the flowers. 6/10/19 Judith Sparhawk
