It’s a scenic drive from Hvar to the Stari Grad Plain, a fertile agricultural region known as the hora. The area has a timeless quality and beauty, with fields, groves and vineyards that have been preserved, virtually unchanged, since ancient Greeks settled on the island more than 2,400 years ago. The lavender workshop venue is a traditional stone structure set amid acres of the aromatic Mediterranean plant, whose perfume fills the air. You’ll have the opportunity to walk in fields, feeling as well as smelling, before learning about lavender’s many beneficial properties and the oil distillation process before making your own sachets to take home. Enhancing the rural experience, the hosts will serve a farm-fresh, hearty snack that includes homemade bread and marmalade.
Experience the timeless beauty and rustic charms of Hvar Island while visiting its celebrated lavender fields.
