Lavender and Rosemary

Our lavender and rosemary is produced without chemicals as nature intended.  We use weed gunnel and lovegrass mulch to retain moisture and keep the weeds at bay.  We mow between the rows and weed regularly to keep the plot looking attractive and make it easier when harvesting.

The lavender fragrance is delighrtful and helps relax your weary mind and body.

The rosemary makes a tasty addition to a roast meal, bbq kebabs and  lots of other culinary dishes.  It also makes an attractive garnish.  In the olden days people kept a sprig of rosemary close while they were studying as they believed it helped them concentrate and absorb new information.

At present we have a small selection of products made from Shadowbox Farm lavender and rosemary available for purchase.  Contact us be phone , fax or email to place your order.
