Day 9: Purple Adobe Lavender Farm by: Sean

 The Purple Adobe Lavender Farm is a 2-acre agritourism farm in Abiquiu, New Mexico. They have a small tearoom and gift shop. They make, in house, all of their cosmetics and culinary products. They have 2 varieties of lavender that they grow: French and English. The owner talked to us a little about the agritourism industry as a whole and the risks that come with it. He also explained how lavender came from the Spanish as a medicinal plant. He explained the growing conditions of lavender and how it does not like humidity. We were able to walk through the lavender fields and see them harvested and growing.
