If you’ve ever wandered through The 815 Artisan Collective and caught the calming scent of lavender, you’ve probably discovered Creek Farm.
Sue Marshall and David Harrington have spent the last 10 years building their dream lavender farm on 10 acres in Darien, Wisconsin, where they care for around 1,000 lavender plants alongside eight energetic Boer goats. Growing lavender in Wisconsin isn’t always easy, but through years of trial, hard work, and plenty of perseverance, they’ve created a beautiful collection of locally grown lavender products that bring a little relaxation into everyday life.
From soothing neck wraps and eye pillows to sachets, linen sprays, and more, many of their products are handmade right on the farm. In fact, Sue even taught herself to sew through YouTube so she could create many of the items they now offer.
Creek Farm is a familiar favorite at farmers markets throughout Beloit, Lake Geneva, and Kenosha, and we’re so happy they chose The 815 Artisan Collective as their first Illinois shop location.
Stop by, say hello to their wonderful products, and treat yourself to something that helps you slow down, breathe deeply, and unwind. You might even learn something new—yes, lavender really does grow right here in Wisconsin!
