{"product_id":"culinary-lavender-buds","title":"Culinary Lavender Buds","description":"\u003cp\u003eHand-cut in June at peak bloom. From the same field as our U-Pick rows.

A teaspoon goes farther than you'd guess.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for infusing teas, crafting artisanal beverages, or elevating culinary creations like shortbread, making simple syrup, herb blends, infused honey, or mixing into dark chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA teaspoon per cup of sugar; less in butter.

Fragrant for about a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocal pickup in Ann Arbor or shipping within Michigan.
