"The Hood River Lavender Farm reminds me of the south of France. Fragrant with lavender essence, it's a relazing treat to just breathe it in. Two-and-a-half acres of rich volcanic soil produce 30 different kinds of lavender, from sturdy English to delicate Spanish. Lavender here is blended with other herbs for fabulous teas and various culinary delights."
