Explore the Beauty of Our Farm
Our Story
Our journey started in the spring of 2018. In the quaint town of Mt. Albert, Ontario on 8 1/2 acres of land, we started by planting over 3400 lovely Lavender plants of English and French varieties in our newly cleared fields.
Since then, our farm has grown to include trails through our fields, forests, lavender, sunflowers and wild flowers, as well as bee hives, rescue animals, a big beautiful pond, The Giving Garden Haven, labyrinths, gratitude trees, a retail store, and so much more!
We are learning as we grow, and want to offer the most brilliant experiences of lavender through natural products, bouquets and a variety of public & private events here at the farm.
It All Started With A Vision
Honestly, if you had told us years ago that we would have grown to this scale, this quickly, we wouldn’t have ever believed you! But guess what, we are doing it and loving every minute!
Our Land Continually Gives
That’s why it’s called “The Giving Place”. The earth gives us everything in its most natural form, and that’s exactly how I want to share it with you. Our journey is full of excitement and adventure here at The Giving Place, and we still have so much to do!
Feel called to give back? Join us on our mission! Our farm is lovingly run by our dozens and dozens of volunteers. We have The Giving Garden Haven, and endless opportunities to volunteer!
Our Lavender
Our Lovely Lavender and Sunny Sunflowers grow lovingly and naturally pesticide free, in our whimsical fields along with our wildflowers and our beautiful honey bees!
Our Lavender, from Lavandula Angustifolia, comes in several varieties of English, Super Blue and Phenomenal. Our Sunflowers come from the Russian Mammoth Variety, naturally beautiful, bright and full of sunflower seeds for you or the birds to enjoy!

Our Lavender Wax Melts are a natural and inviting way to fill your space with beautiful lavender inspired scent. Made with 100% Canadian soy wax and a blend of lavender essential oils and fragrance oils, they offer a clean, long lasting aroma without the need for a flame.
Simply place 1–2 cubes in your wax warmer and enjoy as the fragrance gently unfolds. Allow wax to fully cool before handling, and use only with an approved wax warmer.
