Lavender
I have always loved the taste of lavender. We are fortunate to live near several Lavender gardens, Matanzas Creek Winery in Bennett Valley Sonoma, Monte Bellario di California, and Bees and Blooms. We love photographing these local lavender gardens in the summer. June and July are peak Lavender seasons. It’s great to see and smell the heavenly lavender and extend the day by coming home and making a delicious Lavender Mojito Mocktail!
