Sauvie Island Lavender Farm Launches Wedding Ring Bearer Pillow Line for Straight and Same-Sex Couples
Portland, OR, January 22, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Today, Sauvie Island Lavender Farm announced it is expanding its farm-made lavender product line with its inclusive wedding ring bearer pillows. After last summer’s lavender u-cut season ended with a record high demand for lavender by wedding couples, the farm started creating a new product line that reflected its customer base.
Lavender grower and farm owner, Julie Cleveland commented, “I am over the moon with what we are able to offer straight and LBGTQ couples for their big day. I was blown away awhile back when a gay couple picking lavender for their wedding opened up about the discrimination they encountered when they visited a local florist. I never want a customer to feel unwelcome. I have always had a diverse customer base and this line allows me to serve them better.”
