The Power Of Giving Back

At Lavender Hill Farm, we believe in the power of giving back, and our dedication to supporting local charities and causes resonates at the heart of everything we do.

Each year, we proudly select one local charity to be the beneficiary of our efforts through The Series at Lavender Hill Farm. This annual live music series features concerts that not only entertain but also serve as a platform for raising crucial funds for our chosen charity. As music fills the air and laughter echoes across the fields, our guests generously contribute to the cause, knowing that their support is making a meaningful difference in our community.

We have added to the vibrant atmosphere of The Series at Lavender Hill Farm by partnering with Stiggs Brewery & Kitchen. Concert attendees are invited to join us on our Side Deck Beer Bar, where charity volunteers proudly serve libations in exchange for cash donations.

Each season we invite a professional auctioneer to host a live auction, where guests have the opportunity to bid on an array of exciting items and experiences. With each bid, we raise vital funds that directly benefit our chosen charity, ensuring that their essential work can continue to thrive.

Lavender Goes Pink

 

In addition to The Series, we also host our annual Lavender Goes Pink event, dedicated to supporting The Breast Health Fund at McLaren Northern Michigan Foundation. This special occasion is a celebration of strength, resilience, and hope as we stand in solidarity with those affected by breast cancer. Through live music, and a silent auction, we honor survivors, remember loved ones, and raise awareness about the importance of early detection and treatment.

Donations

Lavender Hill Farm makes countless donations to local charities in the form of cash, gift baskets and distillation classes for live and silent auctions. Great Lakes Center for the Arts, East Lansing Public Library, Bay Harbor Foundation, Charlevoix Garden Club, Boyne Valley Garden Club, Raven Hill Discovery Center and many others are included.
 
We pre-select charitable efforts months in advance. If you feel your charity should be among our considerations, please send us a detailed email to service@lavenderhillfarm.com.

 

At Lavender Hill Farm, giving back is more than just a gesture—it’s a commitment to creating positive change and fostering a sense of community that extends beyond our fields.

Together, we plant the seeds of kindness, cultivate compassion, and harvest hope for a brighter tomorrow. Join us in our mission to make a difference, one act of generosity at a time. Together, we can truly bloom where we are planted.
