Bald Butte Lavender Farm

Our Premium Lavender Culinary Buds are from English lavender cultivars (Lavandula angustifolia) which have a sweet floral aroma.  Many published recipes don’t specify which lavender cultivar was used. However, you should taste buds from different cultivars to determine which cultivar you like the best. Taste varies between individuals, and as such can best be described in the eye of the beholder. The key to using culinary lavender is to experiment, starting out with a small amount of buds, and add more to taste. For cooking and baking, use 1/3 the quantity of dried buds to fresh buds, and use directly or ground into a powder for easier blending. Also use in beverages such as teas, syrups, lattes, lemonades, and cocktail infusions. To ensure your safety and satisfaction, you should only purchase your culinary lavender buds from reputable lavender growers and resellers, and then store buds in a dark cool place to maintain their flavor for up to several years.

What makes our lavender culinary buds premium? After de-budding the dried lavender stems we double clean all culinary buds with our A.T. Ferrell Clipper 2B, and then the buds are frozen for 7+ days to kill potential pests.  The end result are clean buds, which many customers say are the cleanest buds they have purchased.

Premium Lavender Culinary Buds are available by shipping, pick up at our Farm Store, or limited Local Delivery.
