\nWith a large group of 6 who were all crazy about lavender, photo shooting and shopping, Cecile was all the way very patient with us. She provided us all the info we needed on Provence and surrounding areas, and took us to beautiful lavender field away from the crowds. Easy and quick lunch was recommended according to our need at a small family restaurant in lovely Moustier Ste Marie as we wanted to spend more time walking around.
\nThe second day was even better. We told Cecile that we were crazy about lavender and she suggested a day plan to suit us. After charming Lourmarin, Cecile took us to another lavender field in Luberon and we had the field to ourselves with plenty of fun time playing and photo shooting. For lunch, we decided to do some picnic and Cecile finally found us the best spot — next to lavender fields!! We had a good laugh, big fun and wonderful memories thanks to Cecile who understood our needs.
\nCecile is knowledgeable and easy to work with. I would highly recommend joining her to explore Provence and the villages. The lavender fields are magical and the villages truly charming. We did enjoy shopping too \ud83d\ude00 Would love to visit again.. \u00bb Review on Tripadvisor<\/strong> by Pun B<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Lavender fields<\/h3>\n

For the Lavender, the best time to come to Provence<\/strong> specifically by Valensole<\/strong> and in the Luberon<\/strong> area, is during the last week of June 2 first weeks of July, then it is time of the harvest.<\/span>
\nOf course in our gardens we will keep the lavender during all the summer.<\/span><\/p>\n

The harvest<\/h3>\n

The lavender fields are<\/strong> cut when the lavender is in bloom<\/strong>, with fresh flower. Once the plant is cut, it\u2019s immediately brought to the distillery to obtain the best essential oil by steam distillation<\/strong>. We could go to some refineries<\/strong> for a visit and to buy their production.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since antiquity the lavender is known for its healing and soothing virtues.\"lavender\"<\/span>
\nSymbol of Provence. We cultivate it for its essential oil used in perfumes, cosmetics and also in aromatherapy. In Provence we grow the fine lavender and lavandin.<\/span><\/p>\n

An unforgettable fragrance<\/h3>\n

The lavender fields are really magical<\/strong> and I am always amazed by the perfume, the color and how the flowers are so great for the photographer.<\/span>
\nIt\u2019s really something to see. These fields are part of our agriculture for centuries. They are located in Provence in the most beautiful areas<\/strong>. Contact us for a day in the Luberon area<\/strong><\/a>, will be a full day to visit the villages and the fields<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n
