Lavender field project

All the lavender varieties are doing well so we have decided to go for the field. We've de-bushed about a hectare inside the fence and we are currently preparing half hectare for the lavender field on the hill facing North. We've ordered 12.500 Abrialis variety seedlings from South Africa and due for delivery in mid-October when the winter is long gone. Kranzberg will be the first lavender field in Namibia.

This time of the year the weather is great during the day but very cold during the night, sometimes below zero. We have to cover the fruit trees against the frost.
