Press release from: Holistay

Lavender as far as the eye can reach: From the beginning of July, lavender will be the center of attention in the whole south of France. As every year, many villages and cities will arrange big lavender celebrations in order to dignify this year’s lavender harvest. Of course, numerous products made from lavender, for example soaps, oils and other cosmetics, but also lavender honey, potpourris and sachets will be available from local traders. Anyone interested in learning some facts about the more than 20 existing species of lavender, linked traditions and the production process of distilling lavender oil? No problem, on a Lavender Party you will get to know lots of new things!

No matter if you decide for the widely known Festival called ”Corso de la Lavande“ in Digne, a 5 day celebration starting at the first weekend of August, or if you prefer the supposedly biggest Fête de la Lavende in Montélimar or maybe a smaller festival in Sault, Barrême or any of the other 22 villages and cities that celebrate the lavender harvest – be sure that the French savoir-vivre will cater to all your senses. It will be up to you to decide which festival you want to see, or maybe you want to have a tour and join more than one celebration? For those who cannot get enough, the Routes de la Lavende are a suitable way to enrich their holidays. Numerous themed exhibitions, gardens, arts and crafts as well as distilleries and lots of lavender will enchant the visitor and make the different routes an unforgettable adventure.

If at one point you want to see something else than lavender, rest assured that this region has much more to offer than this – for example a tremendously rich culture and history as well as countless sports activities, shimmering landscapes and last but not least the typically French cuisine! The perfect way of discovering the beauty of Provence is to rent a lovely vacation home and explore the surroundings individually, be it by car, bike, horse or on foot.
