We love these breathtaking views and enjoy purple mocktails as much as anyone, but there is so much more happening beneath the surface at Cloudscape Hill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJoin farm owners Casey (biomedical scientist) and Jim (ecopsychologist) for a 30 to 45-minute guided walk that blends a relaxing summer outing with the fascinating agriculture, science, and ecology of our fields. We will take you behind the scenes to learn why lavender thrives here, the \"alchemy\" of how we harvest and process our essential oils, and a few things most farms probably don't tell you — all while immersed in the sweeping purple beauty and unique, restorative scent that makes lavender so beloved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlong the way, we will share our passion for ecotherapy, exploring the measurable ways that interacting with nature — and the neurochemistry of lavender — can actively shift our nervous systems into a state of rest. Casey, a certified yoga instructor, will also guide us through a few gentle movements right in the fields, grounding the experience in both body and place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to Expect\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSips \u0026amp; Scents:\u003c\/strong\u003e Start your walk with a complimentary, refreshing glass of our signature lavender lemonade to enjoy as we stroll through the blooms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBehind the Scenes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Learn about the different lavender varieties, their relationship with local pollinators, and the mechanics of our soil and harvest.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Science \u0026amp; Alchemy:\u003c\/strong\u003e Discover the fascinating compounds that make lavender so unique and the distillation process we use on the farm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA Touch of Wellness:\u003c\/strong\u003e We will incorporate a few gentle, standing yoga movements to ground ourselves in the fields and experience a quiet moment of mindful immersion in the enclosed rows.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA Gift from the Fields:\u003c\/strong\u003e While we ask that all guests refrain from picking the plants, your guide will provide a live harvesting demonstration and cut a fresh mini-bundle of stems for you to take home!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEvent Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule:\u003c\/strong\u003e Every Sunday afternoon, June 28 – August 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTime:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4:30 PM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuration:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30–45 minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Participants:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 per session\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePricing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCategory\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePrice\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdult (18+)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTeen (13–17)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSenior (65+)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVeteran \/ Active Military\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChild (12 and under)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFree\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eImportant Notes for Your Visit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlease arrive a few minutes early to meet at the gate, get checked in, and grab your lemonade before we step into the fields.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo protect our plants and bees, we ask that all guests remain on the designated paths at all times.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDress comfortably for walking on uneven, natural terrain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfter the walk, be sure to browse our farmstand for more farm-crafted lavender goodies, treats, and fresh bundles!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Cloudscape Hill","offers":[{"title":"General Admission: $8.00","offer_id":54825741844852,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Teens, Seniors (65+), and Veterans\/Active Duty: $5.00","offer_id":54825741877620,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 or Younger: Free","offer_id":54825741975924,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0989\/8904\/8180\/files\/20250717_114541.jpg?v=1775848308","url":"https:\/\/cloudscapehill.com\/products\/guided-lavender-walk","provider":"Cloudscape Hill","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
