Twin Flame Lavender Farm
Born in 2019.
Our Lavender Farm was born in 2019 and is still in the infant stages of development. The pandemic in 2020 did put us a little behind. Our farm will not be open to the public in 2021.
We will be attending many great artisan events in 2021. You may also find our retail in the Rustic Corner (Jenison) or M43 Mercantile (South Haven/Paw Paw.)
Twin Flame Lavender Farm FAQs
When will Twin Flame Lavender Farm be open to the public?
We will open once all three phases are complete. The pandemic of 2020 was a set back for us. We are hoping to open this year - 2022. We will make an announcement on our Instagram and Facebook pages once we are ready!
What types of lavender do you grow on Twin Flame Lavender Farm?
We currently have several angustifolia cultivars planted:
- Vera
- Mustead
- Hidcote Blue
- Phenomenal
- Grosso
- Gros Bleu
- Royal Velvet
- Wee One
- Ellagance Snow
We are always adding new cultivars!
How many lavender plants are growing on Twin Flame Lavender Farm?
We currently (2022) have approximately 1000 lavender plants. We are are always adding new lavender plants, flowers and herbs!
Do you have culinary lavender on Twin Flame Lavender Farm?
Yes, a majority of our lavender is "Angustifolia" which is considered the "gold standard" of lavender for both culinary and aromatherpy. We will be introducing "Intermedia" lavender to be sold for flower bunches only.
Lavender is in the same "family" as Rosemary so you are able to swap lavender out for rosemary in recipes.
How many acres of lavender do you currently have on Twin Flame Lavender Farm?
At the end of the 2022 season we have about 3/4 an acre. When completed (always a work in progress,) we are planning on housing approximately 2 acres of lavender on Twin Flame Lavender Farm.
Since Michigan summers are humid, we have our lavender spaced far apart for air flow. Lavender prefers dry heat.
What type of soil do you have on Twin Flame Lavender Farm?
While we are tucked in the DNR Allegan State Forest, Lake Michigan is only 15 miles down the road. Our soil is a lavender plant's dream - all sand!
Is your lavender organic on Twin Flame Lavender Farm?
While we are not certified organic, we maintain organic farming practices. No artificial pesticides or herbicides are utilized on our farm. We do have to amend the soil with lime once a year in order to preserve the alkalinity (6.5-7.5) of the soil for the lavender.
Where does Twin Flame Lavender Farm source their plants?
We source a majority of our Angustifolia strains from seed. This is another reason why our plants are not mature enough for us to open our farm to the public. The seeds we planted in 2019 reached maturity in 2021.
Growing lavender from seed is difficult and the germination rate is very low. Not all lavender farmers have the patience to do this. We are utilizing this method because we want to know that our plants were never exposed to herbicides or pesticides during their growing cycle.
When is your lavender in bloom on Twin Flame Lavender Farm?
Our lavender is in bloom between mid June and mid July. It depends on spring weather!
Do you allow for professional photography on Twin Flame Lavender Farm?
Yes! For insurance purposes: the professional photographer must be licensed, insured and sign a contract before they are allowed on our property.
Will Twin Flame Lavender Farm sell plants in 2022?
We are still working on our farm expansion. Once we feel comfortable with production, we will obtain a required Michigan nursery license required to sell seed germinated and plug rooted plants.
What products will Twin Flame Lavender Farm sell in 2022?
Twin Flame Lavender Farm has been accepted to many top SW Michigan Farmer's Markets and Artisan Events in 2022. This year we will attend Saugatuck (SCA) on Tuesdays and Fridays and South Haven on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
We will sell lavender infused value added products such as soaps, eye pillows, bath bombs, lotion bars, lip balms, candles, etc. Renee has her very own lavender recipe book in the works that will be available to purchase at markets as well. In addition we will sell available culinary lavender, live lavender bundles and dried lavender bundles subject to availability.
Paul will have his handcrafted wood working creations and Renee will also have her handcrafted fabric creations.
We are hoping to open the farm this year to guests. Details are in the works and it will probably happen around Memorial Day Weekend 2022.
We look forward to meeting you at an event this year!
Meet the Team

Paul's love for lavender began when he moved to Anacortes, WA in 2010 and he saw the gorgeous Pelindaba lavender farm on San Juan Island. It has been his dream ever since to own a lavender farm.
Paul's responsibility will be planning for the three phases of farm growth and being in charge of the construction and development of the Twin Flame Lavender Farm project in Allegan, MI.
There is no more perfect place than on his 8 acre parcel in the sandy soil of the Allegan forest to develop and watch this dream grow!

Renee became enamored with essential oils in 2016 when her daughter, Heather, introduced them to her.. She even made homemade soaps that year and gave them out for Christmas presents. Since then, she has realized other plant byproduct such as hydrosol is equally important!
She remained intrigued at all the therapeutic possibilities of natural plants and in 2018, she started classes to become a certified aromatherapist.
While Renee was looking around their newly purchased 8 acre parcel, the possibilities became limitless.

We look forward to offering employment opportunities to the Allegan, MI area in 2020!

Bob & Junior have completely enjoyed their transition from city pups to country pups. We have added a farm cat named Walter.
