Blue Canyon Farm | Est. 2015
In the fall of 2014, after attending lavender festivals in other states, we decided to devote our resources to planting a lavender farm of our own. We envisioned a beautiful
farm with a majestic view of Mt. Timpanogos as the backdrop and carefully
mapped out a plan to make it happen.
As first-generation farmers, we knew our work was cut out for us! We were excited to order 3,100 lavender plants for the following spring and began preparing to transform a
century-old hayfield into a lavender field.
We plowed the fields, and in the spring of 2015, we disced and leveled the first acre to
prepare for planting. Mike then added the drip irrigation system, and we were ready just in time to pick up our plants in early May.
Twelve of the heartiest varieties of lavender were joyfully planted and tended here at our
high-altitude farm in Wasatch County. After our first tiny harvest, we were
thrilled to hang 225 bundles of lavender to dry!
Since those early days, we've grown significantly, adding two more fields, thousands of plants, and over 30 varieties of lavender. We've also added walking paths and beautiful features throughout the farm to welcome the many visitors who come to explore.
Today, we have a year-round farm stand where you can stop by and discover the lavender products we lovingly make right here at the farm.
We've worked hard and found so much joy in this journey. Every plant and every harvest has brought new discoveries, and we're still falling in love with lavender.
