The story of Terraroma

Terraroma is first the land, the land of Provence where this emblematic tree of the plateau of Valensole, the almond tree grows. Symbol of spring, it is for the family business a symbol of love because it is in almond trees that Pauline's grandparents met. With more than 20,000 trees including 12,000 in production, Terraroma is able to offer this almond from Provence so sought after for its quality and its unique taste almost all the year. All in reasoned agriculture.

Terraroma is also the aroma, the aromatic and perfume plants and especially the lavender which the Jaubert family has been extracting for several generations according to the traditional method in its own distillery. As at the time, the flower is first prefanned before being distilled.

There is much more work and manpower than modern methods but the quality is much higher. The farm produces lavender and lavandin essential oil and visits its distillery during the summer season.

Terraroma is also honey, treasure of the hive, sweet nectar harvested by Benoît Millet the companion of Pauline. Passionate about beekeeping and very concerned about animal welfare, he manages to provide a honey of excellent quality. It currently offers lavender, sunflower and forest honey and plans to expand its production range.

Terraroma also offers a range of cosmetics with lavender, almond and honey made in Provence.
