About Belvedere Lavender
A Life Long Dream of Erik Wesseling
Our Story
Belvedere Lavender takes pride in our connection with natural beauty. Bel from bellus “beautiful, fair;” and videre is “view”, in Latin. Together these words mean “beautiful view”, invoking the tranquil rolling hills surrounding the lavender farm near Burford, in Brant County, Ontario.
Belvedere Lavender has been the life long dream of Erik Wesseling, owner and designer at Floral Buds & Design in Woodstock, Ontario. Proudly reconnecting to his Dutch farming roots, Erik has carefully planted over 5,000 lavender plants in honour of his late mother, who fought a courageous battle with cancer in 2015. She had always fondly remembered a farm in Holland which also carried the name of ‘Belvedere’.
Erik’s passion for farming and lavender has grown. He has thoughtfully handcrafted a line of non-toxic lavender skincare products that provide the ultimate spa experience. Registered with Health Canada, Belvedere Lavender offers kosher, vegan and organic ingredients where possible, in key natural lavender products.

I love everything from the fresh, unique floral arrangements to the incredible lavender skin care products. Erik provides personal, attentive service to all who enter his shop!
I love the products that Erik makes with the lavender. A bonus for our community.
Received the anti-aging serum and love it! Been using it after my evening shower, it has softened my skin. I’ve got sensitive skin so I’m leery to use anything on my face. This product is great and doesn’t upset my skin or clod my pores!
