What they make

Lavender Meadows Farm in Chillicothe, Ohio was started by Vicki Wissler, a former nurse, who planted her first lavender in fall 2022 on a 20-acre property and harvested in summer 2023. She cuts the lavender by hand with a sickle and distills her own essential oil for most products. These include room spray, lotion, goat's milk soap, candles, bundles, wreaths, and scrub. They are sold in Chillicothe shops, in Columbus, online, and at juried events.

What 'Ohio Proud' actually means

Grown and made in Ohio

Ohio Proud is a marketing program run by the Ohio Department of Agriculture since 1993 to identify food and agricultural products made and grown in the state. To qualify, a product must be at least 50% grown, raised or processed in Ohio.

That makes the label a useful shortcut, but it is not the only proof. Asking a farm where an ingredient was grown is always fair. Newer Ohio crops are also appearing: OSU Extension has tested American elderberry cultivars for Ohio farmers as an alternative cash crop, noting that local markets are still developing.
