A Little About Our Farm Our farm was established in 2004 to grow and provide efficient, expert growing solutions for growing the finest lavender. We want to bring the best growing information to provide success to our customers and individuals interested in growing their own lavender. Whether it be for personal growers of lavender flower gardens or a commercial lavender growing farm, we want you to be informed so you can grow lavender successfully. Our primary services include lavender plants sales, educational programs and information on growing lavender. We provide consultation, and of course our lavender bath and body product line found at our gift shoppe and in local stores. We also offer a host of specialty services to cater to the unique needs of our clients. Our farm is located in the beautiful Chama River Valley of Abiquiu, New Mexico. Abiquiu is best known for the captivating views, mountain terrain and Chama river where the painter Georgia O'keef lived, loved, and painted so often. Purple Adobe Lavender Farm has planted over 3000 lavender plants, and because of the terrain with its sandy soil, high altitude, and intense sunlight it is the perfect location to grow lavender. Lavender grown at higher altitudes produces a finer, sweeter grade of lavender oil. We are dedicated to growing organically. We strive to grow the finest lavender here at our farm in New Mexico. We harvest, sell, and steam distill the lavender flowers to use in our lavender bath and body products. The resurgence to New Mexico, the Land of Enchantment, has been welcomed by many as long overdue. Our lavender is grown at a higher altitude which produces a finer grade of lavender essential oil that is used in our "Everything Lavender" and Purple Adobe Lavender bath and body product lines. These products are available at our gift shop and local stores throughout New Mexico. Lavender has long been known for it's astounding healing qualities. It is a known calmative, and has antibacterial, and anti-microbial properties aiding in its restorative abilities. Our fields are alive with the scent of lavender during July. The intense fragrance will leave you feeling as though you are at a lavender farm in Provence France. There is nothing quite so wonderful as a field of lavender. The scent is intoxicating and pleasing to the senses. We grow 15 varieties of special lavender all ready to be picked in July. Whether you want lavender fresh cut, dried, use for specific crafts or simply adorning your table, we have the variety you need. Just ask us, we are happy to tell your all about lavender and which variety is used for your special needs. We offer tours of the lavender farm during the month of July. Reservations required. Check out our web site of further information on the lavender farm of Abiquiu. www.purpleadobelavender.com We hope you'll find the farm as healing and wonderful as we do.
