The Provence of the Lavenders(see the video)
“Close the eyes, breathe… You are in Provence! La Provence of the fields of lavender in flowers! It is in the middle of the summer, of the mid-June at at the beginning of August, that one sees them undulating like a blue meadow. The lavender spreads its emanations mainly on the Country of Sault at the bottom
of Mont Ventoux and in the Country of Apt in Luberon but also in the Enclave of Valreas.
The tradition wanted that it was use of it to scent the linen or the water of the bath.
The fields of lavender give also one of the most subtle honeies and it is necessary to dare to discover it in the gastronomy. In summer, the farmers and distillings open to you their doors and invite you to visits with the spellbinding perfume!"
