Penelopes futile camouflage attempt.
We visited this lavender farm, which we smelled long before we saw it. The flowers are cropped before the seeds fall, and left in the sun to dry when they are effectively threshed to extract the seeds and husks
These are hand sieved, before being put in to a copper still to extract the all important essnce of lavender. Janet has made an effort to support the local economy, whilst disguising the smell of our growing bag of dirty washing in the suitcase.
