About the Event
Nestled in the South Downs, Lordington Lavender was established in 2002 by local farmer Andrew Elms. After selling his dairy herd he looked to diversify and decided that Lavender would be a unique and exciting alternative. The crop is grown with conservation of habitat and the environment in mind. Without the use of fertilisers or pesticides it has become a haven for wildlife with at least 12 red listed species of birds found on the farm.
Refreshments will be served afterwards.
