Frequently Asked Questions — Dried Lavender Buds
What are lavender buds used for?
Lavender buds are the dried flower heads of the lavender plant. They're used in cooking, baking, aromatherapy, DIY sachets, bath soaks, and craft projects. Our culinary-grade dried lavender buds are safe to consume and potent enough for all craft and aromatherapy uses.
What is the difference between culinary and regular dried lavender?
Culinary lavender buds are grown without pesticides and processed to food-safe standards. All of our dried lavender is grown on our Michigan farm and is suitable for both culinary and non-culinary uses.
How do you store dried lavender buds?
Store dried lavender in an airtight container away from direct sunlight and heat. Properly stored, lavender buds retain their fragrance and potency for 1–2 years.

Relaxing Lavender
My beloved husband Dennis passed away on November 15th, 2025.
Like most new widows, I have been suffering from insomnia since my husband's death. I share my husband's love of high quality candles. I am certain that he would approve of Lavender Life soy candles.
I've been burning my Lavender Glow candle during the evening while I read to my dogs Bailey and Niko. I find the bold lavender fragrance to be calming and relaxing.

I Love My Star Spangled Xander Bunny
My beloved husband Dennis passed away on November 15th, 2025.
I ordered my Star Spangled Xander Bunny as an anniversary gift for myself. May 3rd, 2026 was the seventh anniversary of our wedding day.
I was pleasantly surprised by how soft and snuggly my Xander Bunny is. I Iove my Xander Bunny's calming real lavender fragrance.
I keep my Xander Bunny on my husband's dresser. I wish I could sleep with my Xander Bunny but I'm afraid that my beloved dogs Bailey and Niko will chew on him. The glow in the dark heart on my Xander Bunny's foot reminds me that my late husband is watching over me and his spirit lives on in my broken heart.
Knowing that Lavender Life donated a Xander Bunny to a child in foster care thanks to my purchase makes me feel like my husband's memory is being honored.
