“Once Gina & Milton purchased their property, they knew they wanted to farm it. Just what to farm, they weren’t sure yet… With [lavender] being drought-tolerant and having so many purposes - not to mention being beautiful - it was a match made in heaven.”
— Paso Robles Press (Magazine)

“Hambly Farms, located at 1390 Grana Place, San Miguel, is a six-generation, long-running venture with the lavender portion opening in 2019. It's been a fixture in the northern Paso Robles/San Miguel region, and Hambly and her husband decided to focus on the famous aromatic plant after realizing how versatile it could be.”

“The best skin and body care products are made from the freshest, natural plant-based ingredients and we are lucky to source a lot of our ingredients locally! When we first met the Hambly Farms family, we were “wowed” by their high-quality lavender product and equally “awed” by their commitment to farming traditions.”
— Life Elements
“Hambly Farms began as a way to return to their family heritage- farming and ranching. Milton and Gina had no experience in farming except for growing their yearly vegetable garden, and their children were very active in 4-H and FFA growing up, raising hogs, goats and steers on friends’ properties. In 2017, they purchased 26 acres in west San Miguel.”

“New to the Hambly Farms lineup of estate-grown lavender products is a custom blend of estate-grown lavender varieties distilled into a lightly scented essence applied with an easy-to-use roller vessel. Its tranquil aroma is calming to the senses and soothing to the soul.”
