In the Lavender Fields
If you follow me on social media, you know that I was in Salt Lake City, Utah last week for the annual Young Living essential oils convention. I have been using Young Living oils and oily products for over two years now and I love them SO much! I can’t say enough good things about them. Y’all know how I love to share my oily recipes, products, tips, etc.
Anyway! It’s been a bucket list item of mine for the last two years to visit a Young Living farm and I was finally able to cross that off last week. Some friends from my team, Amos and I headed to the Lavender farm in Mona, Utah (which is about an hour and a half south of Salt Lake City)… it was seriously an AMAZING experience! I took so many pictures (allllllllll of the pictures), but I chose some of my favorites and wanted to share a little recap with y’all!
The lavender fields smelled AMAZING and were so beautiful. Rows and rows and rows and rows of lavender.
I loved watching the staff HAND WEED the fields. So amazing that everyone is so diligent about this. It just shows what care they put into their fields and their crops!
The lavender fields totally put Amos to sleep… bahaha!
Seriously… the scenery was so stunning.
Next we got to PLANT Yarrow. What other company allows its members to participate in the process like this?!?!?!
Ashley with her Yarrow!
Me with MY Yarrow!
Me and Ashley planting our Yarrow!
They also grow a few other things at the farm like Melissa, Clary Sage, Goldenrod, etc.
Fennel! This whole row smelled like black licorice.
The fields of Clary Sage were just stunning.
Then we got to see the distillery!
The chamomile being distilled!!
Juniper being distilled… This room smelled SO AMAZING!
Gary and Mary Young (the founder and CEO of Young Living) stopped by the check on the distillery
I was blown away by the experience… getting to see and smell and touch the plants and oils… the see the distillery… to see the process. I mean, it truly is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced! I can’t wait to go back and now I want to go see all of Young Living’s other farms around the world. The #seedtoseal process is amazing! They literally own the whole process from the time the seed it sourced till the time the oil is sealed in the bottle. I LOVE it.
Unrelated to the farm, but I wanted to share this picture anyway… Amos was my handsome date to awards night and seriously, how cute is he?!?!
If you’ve been thinking about getting started with essential oils, now is seriously the PERFECT time!
