Alpi Marittime Park combines its environmental safeguard measures with actions supporting local economic activities. The protected area, in collaboration with
Ecomuseo della Segale, has been working for some years to promote the diffusion of rye and lavender, thanks to an agreement between the Park and the local farmers.
In particular, it supports the distillation processes of the lavender flower essence, an activity which was deeply rooted in the area in the past but then disappeared: today, it has been recovered in the characterization process of the Park tourist offer.
At the moment, the limited production amounts are integrated with the production of the nearby Valle Stura, housing the ancient distillery Rocchia di
Demonte, carrying out steam current distillation processes.
The essential oil is for sale at the price of 8 Euros in 10ml bottles packaged in a jute little bag with a sheet illustrating its uses.
Notes: Bottle content: 10ml
