About Us

Lavender Bee Company is a four-generation family farm that specializes in exceptional lavender and honey production.  Each of our 6 varietals of lavender has a unique purpose:

     Grosso- primary source of essential oil

     Phenomenal- fragrance

     Munstead- fresh or dried bouquets

     Royal Velvet- culinary applications

     Hidcote- dry bundles for fragrance or decoration

     Vera- essential oil and dried bundles

Lavender matures slowly and takes roughly 5 years to grow to full size and potency.  During that waiting period we will be expanding to fully fill 6 acres. 

Our honeybees have an abundance of different food sources: 6 varieties of lavender, 24 types of apple trees, 4 types of peach and cherry trees.  This mix results in a truly rare color and flavor profile.  All honey production and bottling are done on our farm here in Lafayette, Indiana.  Come by on weekends May through October or to our 3 festivals to witness it all first-hand!  Or, put on one of our bee suits and break open a live hive with us.  We are available for educational opportunities such as tours, live demonstrations, school visits, speaking at local clubs, etc.

 

Thank you for supporting our local, family-run business in Lafayette, Indiana!
