Question

Does anyone know anything about planting a lavender farm and if there is any money to be made? Thanks?

Answer 1

Tasmania in Australia has some of the best Lavender farms in the World, and they can be very lucrative if you can get a good market for them. It's best to get professional advice as to the best climate ,soil, & marketing. I believe it is rather easy to grow.

Answer 2

Lavender is not very highly wanted for many products, but some perfumes and candles use it. They could be some money involved

Answer 3

There is surely a market for lavender somewhere. It can be grown as a perennial and marketed in the nursery trade, or it can be grown as a specialty herb (dried, fresh or potted). As a specialty crop, the market may be too small to sustain it as a "stand-alone" crop. Most farms would grow it together with other plants (other herbs or perennials depending on your target market) to make the business more viable.
