11. The Beekeeper’s Lavender Cottage
Lavender and bees belong together — it is basically science at this point. This cottage has beehives tucked under the eaves, a little apiary out back, and sunflowers mixed in with the lavender so the bees have somewhere to wander. I built a honey stand by the front gate with jars of honey for sale, and the bees buzz around the garden all day long. It is cheerful, it is busy in the best way, and it pairs perfectly with a flower farm. If you love bees even half as much as I do, this is the cottage for you.
