About this Event
Did you know it takes 5 pounds of flowers to make 5ml of essential oil?
Essential oils, the life force of plants, contain many beneficial properties, and careful processing is required.
Distillation is an ancient and almost magical process of extracting the purest essences from plant matter. Stop by the lavender field to see our beautiful copper alembic (a still) dispense precious drop after drop of essential oil of lavender, and a greater amount of hydrosol (flower water).
The “NYC Lavender Festival” offers 2 days of tours, maker workshops, harvesting opportunities and fun activities, all connected by “ The NYC The Lavender Field” on Governors Island, a healing space for community, bees and earth, and the only lavender field in all 5 boroughs of New York.
Come by the The NYC Lavender Field at the South Battery on Governors Island and dive into the heady fragrance of lavender, see the field in bloom, and take advantage of spectacular photo opportunities. Sign up on Eventbrite for various workshops.
