Carshalton Lavender CIC manages three acres of lavender in Carshalton, Surrey, an area once famous for its lavender. The company works to keep the heritage of local lavender alive for current and future generations. The site was established in 1996, and the company has held an annual community harvest since 2001. Our 2024 harvest was back to normal like our pre-Covid harvests. As always, the attendees really enjoyed the event. We were able to distil our essential oil and hydrosol as usual after the harvest using our purpose-built on-site still. These and other products resulting from the harvest are sold at local events and to retailers and processors over the following year. During the financial year ending March 2025 the company has benefitted the community by: Enabling visitors to pick their own lavender and enjoy the field at the annual harvest weekend in July Educating local residents and students about the tradition of lavender growing in this area Demonstrating the distillation process on site Organising regular work parties for volunteers (including some with learning difficulties) in field work (ground preparation, planting, weeding and pruning), and in the distillation process. Making donations to local charities Continuing to replant agreed areas of the field as needed. Arranging for the erection of a pergola on the field for shade and shelter
