For garden enthusiasts, this local lavender farm loves sharing tips on growing lavender successfully in our area.
This is a guest post submitted by Diane Kulback, Owner, Pollywog Station Lavender Farm. Black Forest Garden Club is working to arrange a tour of the farm for our members, and Diane has kindly offered a special discount for all members for when the tour date is announced.
Nestled on the open prairie with views of the Rocky Mountains and the hum of pollinators in the air, our lavender farm is more than just rows of fragrant purple blooms, it’s a place to reconnect with nature, explore the wonders of gardening, and learn how lavender can thrive even in Colorado’s challenging climate.
We started our lavender farm with a love for the plant’s calming scent, pollinator appeal, and resilience. Lavender’s drought tolerance and ability to flourish in rocky soil made it the perfect choice for our landscape, and now it’s the heart of what we grow and share with our community.
Throughout the growing season, visitors are welcome to stroll our lavender fields, take part in farm tours, and attend seasonal events. Our trails wind through native
wildflowers, historical homestead landmarks, and wildlife corridors where deer, turkeys, and the occasional fox pass through. During bloom time, the fields burst with color, and the air is rich with the scent of lavender and the gentle buzz of honeybees from our own hives.
But the farm isn’t just about what you see, it’s also about what you can take home.
From handcrafted lavender products like eye pillows and hydrosol mist to our signature lavender lemonade and matcha drinks, our goal is to bring a bit of the farm’s peace into everyday life.
For garden enthusiasts, we love sharing tips on growing lavender successfully in our
region. Whether you’re curious about soil preparation, pruning techniques, or the best varieties to plant, we’re happy to talk lavender all day.
Many of our visitors are surprised to learn just how well lavender adapts to Colorado’s high-altitude sun and well-drained soils with the right care.
We’re always expanding what we offer,from demonstrations on distilling essential oil to history-themed events and hands-on gardening days. Whether you come for inspiration, education, or just a peaceful walk through the fields, we hope you’ll leave refreshed and connected to the land.
We invite you to visit us soon, either for one of our tours, an upcoming class, or just a quiet morning walk among the blooms. Lavender has a way of slowing you down and making you breathe a little deeper. And around here, that’s just how we like it.
