Thank you everyone for a fabulous 2011 Lavender Season. We had a record number of visitors who picked hundreds and hundreds of bundles of lavender, sampled (and bought) our wonderful products, enjoyed meeting and greeting Pal, Toby and Pigeon (our horses) and generally enjoyed the beauty of our land and the Upper Ojai Valley.

Lavender Tomato Jam is guaranteed to become a favorite! This surprising flavor combination has rapidly become an addictive addition to many pantries. It’s a tasty topping for your breakfast bagel, it creates an easy, attractive and delicious hors d’oeuvre when spread on top of cream cheese and served with crackers (try garnishing with a sprig of fresh or dried lavender for a real “wow” presentation) and it’s a yummy glaze for seafood, pork or chicken. So good. So easy.
Years ago we discovered that strawberries gently infused with lavender was a match made in heaven. (Think: strawberries sweetened with lavender-infused simple syrup or strawberries topped with lavender whipped cream). Now we’ve decided to take this combination one step further and develop a recipe Lavender Strawberry Jam. The combination is a winner! Spread it on your toast, plop a spoonful on your bagel, swirl it over ice cream or drizzle it on pound cake. No matter where you spoon it, Lavender Strawberry Jam is sure to generate lip-smacking smiles.
Both of the jams are available in 3.5 and 8.5 ounce sizes.
All new products (along with old favorites) are now available…check out our “BUY OUR PRODUCTS” and place your order today … or give us a call (805 )640-1189 to arrange for shipping or to stop by the Ranch and pick up our products.
Thank you,
Bill and Karen
