A Garden Designed for More Than Flowers

At Pause Lavender Farm, pollinators are part of the garden plan. Our growing areas include a USDA-recognized pollinator garden and plants chosen to provide food, shelter and seasonal interest for beneficial insects and wildlife.

We focus on plants that work in northern growing conditions while adding color, texture and movement to the landscape.
