Lavender Consulting
Do you have some questions about
growing lavender, and you just cant
find the answers?
Tuscan Heights can help!
Lavender Consulting:

When you have a question about lavender, you can count on Richard & Lynette Gooch, owners of
Tuscan Heights Lavender Gardens.  Weather you are an experienced lavender grower who needs information on the
latest soil preparation techniques, a Landscaper who just isn't to sure about a certain variety to plant for his/her client,
or a new grower who wants help making the right decision on planting locations, Richard & Lynette can help.

"Our one -on- one consulting services are really more like a personalized workshop," Lynette says. "It is not for people who
just have a few questions.  When I go into a consulting session, I literally start from the ground up to help the lavender
grower assess their land, soil condition, watering needs, etc. so,  the lavender varieties that are planted will have the
healthiest start in it's beautiful new surroundings.

Richard & Lynette have helped lavender growers all over the Shasta County, CA area to grow the
fragrant herb by providing excellent advice on planting, irrigation and fertilizing techniques.

"I love the challenge of helping people," Richard says. "I listen to their questions and then go over ways
their lavender growing experience can become more successful."

Consulting fees vary depending on your individual needs, but generally start at $250. for a full eight-hour day.   
When travel is required, additional travel-related costs will be billed.  Consulting is limited to a
125 mile radius of Whitmore, CA.
We require a 2 hour minimum when scheduling.
(2 hour minimum does not including travel time, travel time is billed at as additional fee)

Richard & Lynette have been a steady force in the Shasta County, CA lavender industry since 2003, and they have
propagated more than 25,000 plants.  The City of Redding, CA credit's the Gooche's skills for helping to Beautify the
Sculpture Park Mediterranean Garden with nearly twenty different  varieties of Stoeches (Spanish) Lavender.
Over Sixty lavender plants surround the foot of the large water fountain in Sculpture Park at City Hall.  

Richard & Lynette continue to increase their knowledge of lavender by means of self education and Lynette is in
the process of writing a book about growing and using lavender in several different mediums.

Below you will find a partial list of some of the topics of discussion that can be included
during a typical consulting session:
