I am probably one of the luckiest people I know. I have a Mama with a lovely and amazing lavender field just across the road from where I live and I get to participate in the lavender harvest every year. Here are some photos of Lavender Harvest 2011 Hope you enjoy them. Im looking forward to 2012. You can also check out my Mama's Etsy shop where she shares the lovely products she makes from this hand harvested lavender! Paula's Garden @ Etsy

Lavender Fields Forever

The tool used for hand harvesting. 

Each plant is lovingly and carefully harvested. 

There is nothing so beautiful as a field of Lavender :)

I'm itching for summer and spring to arrive here in beautiful Montana. It is the best time of year here. So many days filled with gardening, sunshine, swimming, and laughter. I will be posting pics and thoughts here throughout the year about gardening, flowers, growing, and harvesting. So check back in often! 
So, welcome to the beginning of a new blog on Stilettos...hope you enjoy it!
