We hold quarterly lavender merchandise events for healing and reviving our relationship to lavender, land and each other.
What's On
Organisations can arrange individual events by collaborating with Sussex Lavender. Join the mailing list to hear when activities are announced.
We will have dedicated days for registered care organisations, schools and refugees to collect free trays of loose fresh cut lavender that can then be used to create community events — which can also act as fundraisers for their organisation.
Quarterly events for healing and reviving our relationship to lavender, land and each other. These events bring people together around lavender making and community connection.
Paid immersion day funds go toward building infrastructure for educational small-group wellbeing and therapeutic events at the field.

The community heart of the field
Land to Hand
Each harvest, we work with local care homes, hospices, wellbeing centres, refuges and special schools. Fresh trays of loose lavender are made available to organisations so their members can take part in therapeutic bundling sessions.
The rhythm of tying lavender is grounding and calm, and the scent carries long after the session ends. The harvest is done by volunteers who brought this project to life in love and support.
How organisations take partLend a Hand
This field grows with many hands. Whatever you can offer — an afternoon or a skill — is welcome.

Collecting and delivering free trays to care homes, hospices and schools during our charitable collection days.
Capturing the field, the harvest and the bundling sessions — images that help us share the story of Sussex Lavender.
