Farm Store
A Dream Years in the Making: The McLaughlin Lavender Farm Store
Every step we’ve taken — every season we’ve grown through — has led us here.
The Little Lavender Farm Store 🌿💜
Welcome to the Little Lavender Farm Store, a cozy, light-filled space nestled at Hoffman Hills Lavender Farm and lovingly brought to life by the McLaughlin Lavender team. This little shop is more than just a store—it’s a dream come true, built with heart, hard work, and a whole lot of lavender love.
Most of the furniture inside has been thoughtfully refinished and painted by hand, giving each piece a story and charm all its own. Some of the shelves were rescued and repurposed from our local Habitat for Humanity ReStore, adding a special touch of sustainability and character. With the help of my dad and husband, many of my visions for the space became reality—they poured their time and talent into making this store feel warm, welcoming, and uniquely ours. They refinished an old dresser into a check out stand with pallets, covered the sewing machine turned desk, and made the ribbon holders!
And while the building isn’t quite finished—we’re still working toward insulation, interior walls, and full electrical—we just couldn’t wait any longer to share it with you. We’re so excited to open our second location and invite you into this special space we’ve poured our hearts into.
A huge thank you to Casey from Adventurous Aromas, who helped install the beautiful laminate flooring that ties the space together. His support (and hands-on help!) brought the final piece of the puzzle into place.
Stepping into the Little Lavender Farm Store feels like stepping into a dream. Here you’ll find handcrafted lavender goods, self-care products, seasonal gifts, plant starts, and so much more—all curated with care and inspired by the farm’s beauty and spirit.
Come visit us Friday through Sunday during U-Pick season and experience the charm for yourself. We can’t wait to welcome you in!
The Little Lavender Farm Store Beginnings
From my early days in tourism and community development to coaching college & high school lacrosse, organizing events, and dreaming big under the open sky, I’ve always believed in the power of people coming together. Every experience has been a thread in the fabric of this dream: a farm store filled with beauty, purpose, and heart.
Now, we’re on the edge of making that dream a reality.
The McLaughlin Lavender Farm Store will be a warm, welcoming space in The Dalles — a place to showcase not only our handcrafted lavender goods, but also the incredible work of other small, local makers. It will be a place for neighbors to gather, for small businesses to grow, and for community to bloom.
Please, if you’re in the area or passing through, stop by and see the farm, enjoy Lavender U-Pick, and visit our store!
