Yesterday was a scary day for Roz and Thad residents of Tuscaloosa. Thad at work, Roz home alone with no power. This was a first for this girl from the west, who knows about earthquakes, but not Tornados. While she sits in her hall, I'm on the cell with her in Utah tracking the Tornado on the internet. It was un-nerving to see a hugh storm headed for her city. They escaped without damage. But Tuscaloosa didn't as you can see from the photo. So much is gone. My favorite Barbecue "Full Moon" completely gone. The main shopping area also gone. Those Alabama folk are tough old birds. Tuscalossa will be rebuilt bigger and better. Our prayers go out to ya'll
After many life experiences including living in France and traveling the world, we have settled down in beautiful Cache Valley Utah. We live on a 6 acre farm nestled at the mouth of a mountain canyon. We have over 80 apple trees in our orchard, many of which are vintage varieties. We also have over 1000 Lavender plants, across 2 fields. Hence our farm name "The Lavender Apple." We hand craft over 40 natural and organic products. Here on this blog we share recipes, farm photos, and lavender tips. Welcome to all our friends. Enjoy!
