OUR STORY
In 2015, we planted 8,000 lavender plants along the banks of the Loch Leven National Nature Reserve. We wanted to create a peaceful environment that would be protected from the effects of high-intensity arable farming.
An abundance of natural wildflowers and shrubs soon reclaimed the area around the fields. Many hares, roe deer and a variety of birds also returned. Our experience demonstrated to us the possibilities of farming in balance with the natural environment.
We now grow a range of plants alongside our lavender, including rosemary and peppermint. We use natural techniques for cultivation and set aside a considerable area of high-quality land for rewilding.
Our sophisticated in-house quality control regime allows us to draw supplies from accredited partner farms when seasonality demands.
We are immensely fortunate to live at a time when the natural goodness of plants can be harvested and extracted easily. We also strive to play our part in protecting our local environment for generations to come.
