Lavender Picking-Distillation Workshop between Nimes and Arles

About this activity

This workshop allows you to discover the entire process of extracting floral waters and essential oils.

But above all it allows you to participate concretely, because it is you who will pick and distill your lavender!

An activity that starts at the plant and ends in the bottle, which you will fill with floral water and essential oil freshly extracted by you. You will leave with your creation and the pleasure of saying “product made with my hands”.

An activity that highlights local know-how, nature, organic farming and the delicious scent of pretty lavender!
