Life Lessons Drawn from the Lavender Farm

A Reason to Celebrate

Ever wonder what life would be like without celebrations? Without new beginnings? Since the beginning of time, humans have marked important events in their lives with celebrations. Celebrations, in the form of events, parties, and festivals, represent a means of positive recreation, provide us with traditions and fond memories, and enrich our lives as we draw closer to family and community members.

New Beginnings

Spending time on the lavender farm has helped me become even more aware of how important new beginnings are and the significance they play in our lives. Agricultural societies have often celebrated the arrival of spring, the season of new beginnings--new plants growing in the fields, and new animal life on the farm.

At the Young Living Lavender Farm, we're pleased to continue in the spirit of celebration and hope that you will join us on March 22, 2008, as we celebrate our annual Easter Festival.

Easter Festival

Our spring event is being planned and organized by a very talented group of students from Brigham Young University. These students are pursuing studies in facilities management, travel and tourism, and recreation management. Full of creativity, adventure, and a love of the outdoors, they are eager to help you and your family experience a fabulous time discovering spring at the Young Living Lavender Farm. We encourage you to visit our blog and website often as we post activities that will be available at the Easter Festival.
