{"product_id":"lavender-farmer","title":"Lavender Farmer","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"long-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plant wins, almost every time. Take any old farm where the work has stopped, where the wall has cracked, where the door is gone and the well dry, and chances are there is something still growing on it. A rose, a fig, a grapevine somebody put in seventy years ago and never came back for. A bit of lavender that escaped the field and decided the doorstep was as good a place as any. Whatever the soil remembers, it remembers in green.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the plateau in Provence where the lavender is grown, you keep finding little stone ruins among the rows. Cabanons, mostly. Buildings where the harvest used to be sorted, where the flowers were once distilled while still warm. Walls softened back into the colour of the soil. The people who built them are several generations dead. Their lavender is still here. Somebody else's grandchildren are cutting it now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReads alongside \u003cem\u003ePig Earth\u003c\/em\u003e by John Berger, \u003cem\u003eThe Shepherd's Life\u003c\/em\u003e by James Rebanks, or any book about the long quiet between the work and the harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Fine Art of Bookmarks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58112174031232,"sku":"TFAOB-S07-B032","price":14.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/2346\/9440\/files\/lavender-farmer-fine-art-bookmark-fine-art-bookmark-cover.jpg?v=1780057087","url":"https:\/\/thefineartofbookmarks.com\/products\/lavender-farmer","provider":"The Fine Art Of Bookmarks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
