Lavender Sunset Picnic Cooking Class
Saturday, July 25th | 6pm - 8pm
In the golden glow of a summer evening, gather for a hands‑on dinner workshop that feels like a sunset picnic - fresh ingredients, relaxed cooking, and a stroll to pick lavender and seasonal wildflowers.
You’ll begin by mixing a bright, herb‑kissed lavender chicken salad and pairing it with homemade bread for a simple, delicious sammie.
Next, you’ll toss together a Peach + Lavender Quinoa Salad - sweet, floral, and refreshing - layering it into a mason jar for a charming, ready‑to‑enjoy presentation.
You’ll finish with Dubai‑style Chocolate Dates, blending pistachio crema with crisp, golden kataifi, tucking it into plump dates, and drizzling chocolate over the top for an indulgent bite.
After the workshop, wander the fields to gather a fresh bundle of lavender and wildflowers as the sun fades.

Afternoon Tea on the Patio
Saturday, September 19th | 2pm - 4pm
A late‑summer afternoon on the covered patio of our barn overlooking the flower fields sets the scene for a charming tea‑time experience led by Chef Sammy Trick of All My Friends Are Flowers. You’ll settle in for a leisurely garden‑style gathering filled with delicate bites, fragrant teas, and a stroll through the wildflower fields to build your own bouquet.
You’ll be welcomed to a spread of classic tea‑party favorites with a seasonal twist - herbed cucumber sandwiches, curried chicken tea sandwiches, sweet and savory scones with homemade jams and clotted cream, petite tarts, and layered cakes. A selection of teas will be available to sip throughout the afternoon, along with lavender lemonade.
As you enjoy the breeze and the late‑summer light, we’ll guide you through creating your own hand‑picked bouquet, choosing stems directly from the lavender fields and seasonal wildflower patches.
You’ll leave with a full heart, a handmade bouquet, and the memory of a slow, beautiful afternoon among the flowers.
