How To Make Lavender Honey
It’s a staple in our Oldstead larder and the *perfect* way to preserve the glut of blooms grown in the Black Swan Garden every year. Lavender honey is super easy to make, and great weekend activity to get stuck into whilst enjoying the beautiful summer sunshine.

You will need:
- 500g good quality local honey
- 50g lavender flowers, picked from the stem
