In Coustellet, near Gordes, the workshops bring everyone closer to lavender—hands-on, relaxed, and memorable. Children make their own lavender sachet, while adults discover traditional distillation, explore scents in a lavender sensory workshop, or paint a watercolor inspired by the purple fields of Provence. Here, lavender is not just a flower to admire: it is something to touch, smell, and truly experience. Each workshop offers a real moment to share—and a keepsake to take home.
At the museum, lavender never stays behind glass. It comes alive through workshops designed for every age—visitors, local families, and curious couples who want to experience true Provence lavender in a simple, enjoyable way.
Each lavender workshop follows the same idea: learn by doing, smell by smelling, understand by trying.
In this children’s workshop, lavender becomes a hands-on craft. Kids fill their own sachet with dried lavender flowers and aromatic herbs, learn to recognize its signature scent, and leave with a fragrant creation to take home.
