Rooted in Possibility
What began as a dream in 2020 continues to grow and evolve on our little bit of land in the rolling hills of Vista, California. Our journey has been filled with experimentation, hard work, lessons learned, and a renewed appreciation for what it takes to cultivate the land.
Today, we are focused on reestablishing our lavender fields and nurturing 200 newly planted Arbequina olive trees. While it will take time for our olive trees to mature and produce a meaningful harvest, we look forward to the possibility of adding farm-grown olives and olive oil to our future offerings.
We are also exploring a collection of small-batch lavender products, including handcrafted soaps, fragrant sachets, and culinary lavender syrups. Our goal is to create thoughtful products that reflect the beauty, fragrance, and versatility of the plants we grow.
We are taking our time, learning as we go, and allowing the farm to develop naturally. Not everything we envision is available just yet, but we are excited about what lies ahead and look forward to sharing our progress, our harvests, and eventually our creations with you.
A Little Bit of Land is a work in progress—and that is part of its story.
10 Benefits of Lavender
Growing lavender is fun and offers a number of health and culinary benefits. Lavender is known for its versatility and numerous uses—especially when it comes to its oils, which are extracted from the flower of the plant through steam distillation.
The flowers of the lavender plant have a soothing fragrance when they are fresh or dried, which is one of the many reasons why they are so popular among those who grow herbs. Lavender is a member of the mint family.
The calming scent of lavender makes it a regular ingredient in aromatherapy. Lavender oil combines beautifully with other herbs, such as cedarwood, pine, clary sage, geranium, and nutmeg. You’ll find lavender commonly used in many personal care products, and is used in sweet and savory foods as well.
In addition to the calming effect of its aroma, lavender plant benefits are especially abundant in its oil.
“One of my favorite places on earth! Gorgeous lavender, great people, and an amazing atmosphere! You really must stop out if you have a day to meander through the rows!”
