It's really worth it! - The perfume that welcomes us says it all and prepares us for a fantastic visit, where we learn how (without chemicals, pesticides, etc.) aromatic herbs are grown in a completely natural way (eg lavender/lavender - aspic, fine lavender and “ lavandine”- rosemary/rosemary, verbena and helichrysum) and how, according to an ancestral principle and in an almost manual and careful way, essential oils and floral waters are produced. Sylvain led a tour of the plantations and the machines they use for planting/harvesting and distilling (including the 75 year old Alphonse tractor), all on the farm which has been in the same family for 4 generations. We played music with Gaël, owner of the farm, and congratulated Joana, who was on her last day at the farm's store. Anyway, great atmosphere and a visit that is really worth it.
