About us

HELEN WILSON LAVENDER

Nestled in a valley just past Tauweru, my farm is situated on the Castlepoint Road, 17kms from Masterton. It was established in 2000 having been grazing land. Work quickly happened and my late husband Ken planted over 2,000 plants. This area of the Wairarapa is rich in lime outcrops and has very hot summers and very cold winters. Since Ken’s death I have continued development with passion strongly believing in lavender. I now grow grosso, pacific blue, foveaux storm and molten silver. My favourite products are essential lavender oil and lavender salve. As the area affords a rich harvest, my need has been to further my business with some exporting of oil, which has happened to Israel and China. My partner John McDonnell and myself have a further passion which is painting in watercolours and acrylics. This creates a balance to life. We love to exhibit in the NZ Academy of Fine Arts.
