Our Team

 

It takes a lot of work and amazing people to keep the farm going. Here are most of the permanent staff, and each year more people work there seasonally.

Sarah RichardsSarah hanging lavender

Owner and creator, she is on the path to learn how to encourage and support the others who work hard here on the farm. Of course, she has to meddle and do the work herself, too.

Mare Processing Lavender

Mare Chapman

A friend before working here she cheerfully fills in, makes products, packs and ships orders. An ex-Navy officer and ex-sheepherder she has an amazing array of skills.

Nancy Guptill

Nancy in Greenhouse

Newly retired she walked into the gift shop and offered to volunteer. We hired her on the spot. She left for a year and managed to get certified as Master Gardener. Now, she is back and making sure the plants in the gardens and the nursery plants are happy.

Kathy's Grin

Kathy Haven

She was born later the same year as Sarah, so that’s the only way Sarah stays on top. Kathy keeps the paperwork from flying all over the place.

Younes MoumouYounes smiles in field

He comes to us from a high tech career and now seems to be joyful in the fields. He continues to learn more about farming, and now maintains the machinery in addition to managing the fields. Since he is from Morocco, he speaks French like a native, which is a delight to our French speaking customers, and Sarah who likes to practice her French.

…and all the others who worked here and are now off to other things
