I asked Margery about the honey she uses to make her lavender flavored honey. I was wondering about the availability given the problems we’re hearing about with honey bees all over the country. She said that the local beekeeper she works with hasn’t experienced any problems with Colony Collapse Disorder or CCD. The only problem he’s had is with fending off the bears!

In addition to the herb - products, Margery runs workshops at the form. There are four currently offered including making a lavender wand, creating sachets, one where you create a lavender wreath and one where you make your own Herbes de Provence.

Country Gardens is open 10-5 on Saturdays, May through October. Or you can call and make an appointment to come by. She can be reached at 540-937-3820. Or you can visit her web site once it’s back up and running at http://www. countrygardensva.com

I can’t imagine many nicer places to spend a beautiful spring day in Rappahannock County!
