Apparently, outside is a dangerous place. 😳

There are birds. Strangers. Responsibilities. And absolutely NO guarantee of snacks.

So, for Mom’s safety, I’ve decided we’re staying right here.

She calls it being trapped. I call it protecting my investment.

You’re welcome, Mother. 🐈🧡

Love, Gordie

YOUR SKINCARE ROUTINE SHOULDN’T REQUIRE A SPREADSHEET. 😂💜

Somewhere along the way, skincare got complicated.

Twelve-step routines. Fifty-seven ingredients we can’t pronounce. Serums for this, creams for that, and apparently, we’re all supposed to wake up looking 25 again.

Um, no thanks. We’ve got enough going on.

At Hereward Farms, we believe skincare should fit into your life. Not become another full-time job.

And here’s a little secret: Your skin isn’t a problem that needs fixing.

It’s been through a lot. It’s laughed, cried, survived sleepless nights, questionable decisions, and probably a few summers when sunscreen wasn’t exactly a priority. (We know. We know. 😬)

It deserves a little love, not another lecture.

That’s why we created five thoughtfully formulated skincare products, made with lavender grown right here on our Ontario farm.

A gentle cleanser. A refreshing toner. A three-ingredient, award-winning serum. A nourishing face cream. And a clay mask for those moments when you want a little extra attention.

No pressure to use them all. No complicated rules. Just simple, naturally made skincare that works with your routine.

Because we’re not interested in turning back the clock.

We’re interested in making the skin you’re in feel pretty damn good.

And if we can do that while keeping things simple, even better.

We grow it. We make it. You love it. 💜🇨🇦

Now, be honest… how many skincare products are currently sitting in your bathroom that you have absolutely NO idea what to do with? 😂

🐈🧡 HAPPY GLOBAL CAT DAY! 🧡🐈

Apparently, today is a day to celebrate cats.

Which is adorable, considering Gordie has been celebrating himself every single day since he moved in. 🙄

Let’s be clear. Gordie doesn’t consider himself a pet.

He’s the CEO of Hereward Farms, Head of Treat Distribution, Director of Napping Operations, and Chief Supervisor of Absolutely Nothing.

He owns the furniture, controls the household, demands cuddles on his schedule, and somehow has two full-time humans working to support his lifestyle.

And the worst part?

We think we’re the lucky ones. 🧡

Happy Global Cat Day to all the furry little freeloaders who have somehow convinced us that we’re the staff.

Especially you, Gordie. You magnificent, spoiled little orange dictator. 👑🐈 by @herewardfarms

POV: You’re Gordie. 🐈🧡

Oh, you’re taking ANOTHER picture of me?

Is it because I’m ridiculously handsome? Naturally photogenic? The most important member of this household?

Understandable.

Just make sure you get my good side.

Spoiler alert: They’re all my good side. 😼

Now, where are my treats? I don’t model for free. taken in Hereward Farms by @herewardfarms

Just when I thought I’d escaped lavender season…

There it is. Sitting in my living room. Looking all pretty and innocent.

Honestly, this plant has absolutely no respect for work-life balance.

And apparently, neither do I. 💜 taken in Hereward Farms by @herewardfarms

🌿 A Little Change of Plans! 🌿

We’re closing up shop a little earlier than usual today at the Hereward Farms Lavender Lounge + Café!

Even lavender lovers need to call it a day early sometimes. 💜

Thanks for understanding, and we look forward to seeing your lovely faces again soon!

Too loud. Too opinionated. Too ambitious. Too many ideas. Too much personality.

Hi. I’m Julie. 😂

Turns out, all those things that supposedly made me “too much” were actually pretty useful.

Built a lavender farm. Created products and a brand. Opened a boutique and café. And somehow convinced my husband that every new idea was a GREAT idea.

(He’s still recovering from the last one.)

Do I have 47 ideas before breakfast? Yes.

Do I occasionally bite off more than I can chew? Also yes.

Would I change a thing? Not a chance.

To every girl who was ever told she was too much:

Don’t you dare become less.

Find something you love and pour every ounce of that “too much” into it.

And if all else fails, marry someone patient. 😂💜

Love, Julie.

📱 POV: FaceTiming Dad to report Mom.

Dad. We need to talk. 🚨🐈

Mom says I’ve had enough treats.
Mom says I’ve had enough cuddles.
Mom says I need to learn boundaries.

DAD. I AM THE BABY. 😭

Please come home. I’m living with a monster.

Love,

The lavender fields may be sleeping, but the magic? Oh, she’s just getting started. 💜

Take a walk with me through our lavender fields. 🌿

The blooms have been harvested, the fields are winding down for the season, but the beauty of lavender doesn’t end when the flowers disappear.

In fact, that’s where a whole new story begins.

From our fields to our bottles, we take the lavender we grow and turn it into beautiful, all-natural skincare, bath, body, and home products.

Because lavender isn’t just a pretty face. 💜

It’s known for its calming aroma, its ability to help create a relaxing bedtime routine, and its soothing qualities in skincare.

So while you might have to wait until next summer to wander through our blooming fields, you can bring a little piece of them home with you all year long.

The fields are seasonal. The lavender love affair? That’s year-round.

We grow it. We make it. You love it. 💜

I’M STILL NOT OVER THIS. 🇨🇦💜

Six years.

Six years of growing lavender, making products, building this crazy little Canadian business — and somehow, moments like this still hit exactly the same.

Hereward Farms is in LCBO Food & Drink Magazine.

Like… WHAT?!

We’ve been incredibly fortunate to have some pretty amazing coverage over the years, but it never gets old. It’s kind of like knowing Santa comes every year — you know it happens, but you’re still ridiculously excited when he shows up. 😂

A huge thank you to the Culinary Tourism Alliance and Feast On® for including us and, more importantly, for continuing to shine a spotlight on the incredible businesses growing, making and creating right here in Ontario.

Building a Canadian business isn’t always easy.

But moments like this?
They’re pretty damn special.

So buy Canadian. Support Canadian. Brag about Canadian businesses. 🇨🇦

And if anyone needs me, I’ll just be over here staring at the magazine again.

Pinch me. 💜 by @herewardfarms

Instagram made me buy it. And honestly, Instagram has made me buy much worse. 😂

Somewhere in my endless scrolling, I came across @artby.krysta and immediately knew I wanted her to paint our house.

Simple enough, right?

Except… could we add the lavender? 💜
And the sunflowers? 🌻
And OBVIOUSLY Gordie.

Specifically, my absolute favourite photo of Gordie amongst the sunflowers — because apparently even commissioned artwork requires approval from the Chief Nap Officer. 🐈😂

Krysta, you absolutely outdid yourself.

This is so much more than a painting of our house. It’s our home. Our farm. The lavender we planted, the sunflowers we grew, the place we’ve poured so much of ourselves into… and one ridiculously photogenic orange cat who somehow became part of the whole story.

We love supporting artists.
We love supporting small businesses.
And we REALLY love supporting Canadian. 🇨🇦

There are some things you buy because they’re beautiful.

And then there are the things that make you stop, stare, and think, “That’s us.” ❤️

This one means a lot. taken in Hereward Farms by @herewardfarms
