Family farm Kavic
Family farm Kavić
You are probably familiar with our small town Sveti Ivan Zelina. You have heard of him because in the Zelina region, people are engaged in growing vines and wine. That's why there are wine roads that lead you to wine producers.
But our story is something completely different.
If you come along the wine road to the small, tame place of Donje Psarjevo, it's like you've come to Provence in miniature.
Namely, our family farm OPG-Kavić is engaged in the cultivation of lavender, seedlings, but also the processing of lavender into the final product. These are various souvenirs made from dried lavender flowers, as well as lavender essential oil that we distill ourselves in our distillery.
Opg-Kavić was founded in 2008 by Mladen and Zdenka, and later son Zdenko, daughter-in-law Ana and their children joined. So, the complete Kavić family.
We tried to grow lavender on the mainland and it worked for us.
The first field was planted on 0.6 ha, i.e. about 5000 seedlings. Over the years, we have expanded the fields and now we have 2ha planted with hybrid lavender seedlings. We also have one smaller field of true lavender variety -lavandula angustifolia. These are smaller bushes, but they are loved by bees because they produce honey, and we make essential oil from them.
Lavender is the mother of all plants. Throughout history, it has always been used as medicine, disinfectant for all types of wounds, as aromatherapy. Calms stress, relaxes, nurtures, treats, heals.
In our offer, we have a whole range of various products from this wonderful plant. You can visit us at our property and enjoy the beautiful ambience of our fields in the relaxing atmosphere we offer you.
Quality assortment, kindness to guests and love for this business leads us to perfection.
