Did You Know? Questions and Answers and an FYI About Lavender Fields

We get a lot of questions by email and social media and wanted to answer some of the top questions on our blog for you. So lets go....

How long have you been in business?
We started Lavender Fields in 2001! So 16 years! We cannot believe how many years have past by already! We love our business and love our customers!

Do you have a retail shop?Yes we do! We are located in the charming historic town of Port Jefferson on the north shore of long island. We also call this town home and live minutes away from the shop in a historic home. Our home has been featured in Romantic Living Magazine a few times. Click here to take the tour of our home for the holidays.







Do you offer trade discounts?
Yes we do! Visit this page to register for trade discounts.

Do you have an affiliate program?Yes we do! Visit this page to sign up for our affiliate program.

Do you offer interior design services?
Yes we do! We offer design services locally and anywhere in the states and the world with our online design services.

Can I receive samples of bedding, rugs, fabric, wallpaper and wood samples?
Yes you can! Contact us and we would be glad to send you samples.

Do you ship worldwide?
Yes we do! We have some restrictions so it is best to contact us first to inquire if we can ship a certain product.

Do you gift wrap?
Yes we do! We offer free gift wrap. Just let us know at checkout. Some large items or items shipping direct from our manufacturers cannot be gift wrapped.

Why do you focus on vegan products?We are vegans and our bath and body products are mostly vegan. Each will state it in the item description. We also only offer cruelty free products. None of our bath and body products or candles are tested on animals. Ever!

Do you give back?
Yes we do! We donate to many local charities as well as charities that are close to our heart.

Do you collaborate with bloggers?
Yes we do! Contact us for more information.

Do you stand behind your products?
Yes we do! We personally hand select every vendor and every product. Before we work with a vendor we ask a lot of questions and look at the products and how they are made. Our home is filled with the products we sell so we do test our products!

Do you have any other shops?
No. But we did have a fun vintage shop in Ocean Grove New Jersey called Kitch and Kaboodle before we opened Lavender Fields.

Now a little about me you may have not known...
I am a single mom with a beautiful 9 year old daughter. Ava Rose was raised in our store so all the locals remember her from when she was a little baby. She now loves helping me in the shop and can often be found showing customers all of her favorite things. We live in a historic house in Port Jefferson village we which are lovingly restoring for years! We took a break from restoration work but will be back at it soon and will feature all our projects on the blog. I am a vegan and Ava is a vegetarian (almost vegan at this point). We love animals and have a wonderful fun dog named Harry who we rescued from a bad place in 2004 and we also have several funny cats their photos pop up now and then on our instagram feed. We also rescue cats and do tnr in our neighborhood. I am on the board of a non-profit called Port Jefferson Cat Care with my good friend and local natural doctor Doni Wilson. Visit our instagram page for more info pjcatcare.

I grew up traveling the world with my parents and sister so I have always had a love for travel and a love for finding unique products. My dad had a passion for antiques so we would often spend our time at antique markets and yard sales. We grew up going to a cabin in Smallwood, New York right outside of Bethel the site of Woodstock. We spent our summers in the country and loved it.

I am passionate about finding a cure for lyme disease. I contracted lyme on a hike in 1995 and went undiagnosed for years. I spend a lot of my free time trying to help others with lyme find the care they need. Ava and I both love art, music and yoga and you can find us in the yoga studio at least once a week and we practice at home daily. When we are not working, going to school or practicing yoga we are off creating something or taking a walk in our beautiful town.

I think that covers it! Glad to share a little of my history and answer some questions about Lavender Fields!

Lori and Ava Rose

Fun Valentine's Day Ideas and Vegan Recipes

Valentine's Day has always been a big deal in our house. We just love to celebrate love. Valentine's Day is not just for couples it is for families too and children enjoy celebrating it. Growing up my mother celebrated every occasion and took the opportunity of a holiday big or small to enjoy a meal together. She always had fun presents for us no matter how old we were. I passed this tradition on to my daughter and I love that now that she is 8 she shares in the tradition and looks forward to each holiday.

Here are some ideas from Pinterest on how to create a pretty valentines table and I am sharing some delicious vegan recipes at the end of this post.

New Year...New Arrivals...

A fresh new year and fresh new arrivals. We are so excited about all the beautiful new products we will be introducing this year. When I say we search the globe trust me we really do. Selecting products for the shop is a very serious and big part of our business plan each year. We just do not go to a show and place orders. So much is considered. First, quality and design. If we will not use it we do not sell it. Second, craftsmanship. We examine how items are made and how they will hold up. Third, where they are made. We would like to support local craftsman and craftsman in the USA as well as worldwide as long as things are not mass produced. So when an item is put on our website or in our shop you can trust that the item was carefully selected by us. We hope you enjoy all of our new arrivals this year. We are adding items each week so check back frequently.

Our latest gift arrivals are so much fun! This great pillow is handmade in the USA and such a statement maker. Shop this pillow and more in our Gift Section.


We are introducing new lighting from Currey and Company this month. Their new lamps are just amazing!



Our bedding arrivals are just so beautiful! We have new Bella Notte Linens, new Bohemian Bedding from Pine Cone Hill, new colors from Lazybones coming in February and new introductions from Pom Pom at Home and Peacock Alley as well as fun new pillowcases.


This year we are bringing back Sugarboo Designs. Our favorite line of art prints and signs became even more incredible with so many new home decor items. Shop our Gallery for all the new introductions.


As always we offer free design assistance. If you are having trouble selecting the perfect item or putting a room together give us a call we would love to help you. Our customers mean so much to us and we love building relationships with each one of you. Thank you for an amazing 2016 we are looking forward to great things in 2017!

Our Home for the Holidays


Being in the retail business it is easy to get caught up in the holiday rush and forget to take the time to just enjoy your own home. I have learned over the years to start decorating early so I can really enjoy it whenever I am home. This year I started right before Thanksgiving and I am so glad I did. We really took the time to cherish our home and enjoy our special decorations that we have collected over the years. Here is a little peak into our home decorated for the holidays.

From Our House to Your House We Wish You the Most Wonderful Holiday and the Happiest and Healthiest New Year!

Tour Our Store for the Holidays

We are so honored this year to have won the best Holiday Window Contest in our sweet village of Port Jefferson, New York. Our theme is I'll Be Home for Christmas. Many of our customers talk excitedly about their college children coming home for Christmas and about relatives coming to visit so we thought lets create a theme about how it would feel for someone to come home for Christmas and get greeted by the warmth of home represented by arriving at their front door. Over the last week people were asked to walk around the village and vote for their favorite window. There were so many nice windows to choose from and the contest made our town look so festive.

Here are some photos of our shop decked out for the holidays. If you are local come visit us! If there is something you would like to purchase and cannot come visit give us a call 866-898-5461.

Wishing you the happiest and healthiest holiday!
