You might picture lavender oil in a spa or peppermint oil in a fancy candle, but here at De’Viar Farms, essential oils are part of our everyday hustle. Spoiler alert: they do way more than just smell pretty.
Morning Calm with Lavender
The rooster crows, the dogs stir, and before the coffee even brews, lavender oil is already at work. A few drops in the diffuser sets a calm tone for the day — something every farmer needs before chores kick in. Science even backs it up: studies show lavender can ease stress and improve sleep quality.
It’s our gentle nudge to start the day balanced instead of frazzled.
Midday Energy Boost
By noon, the to-do list is longer than a row of corn. Instead of pouring another cup of coffee, we grab peppermint oil. One whiff feels like a cool breeze for the brain — refreshing, sharp, and energizing.
It’s amazing how something so simple can perk you up faster than caffeine.

Cleaning the Farmhouse, Naturally
After lunch comes cleanup, and essential oils shine brightest here. Forget chemical sprays — we mix lemon oil with vinegar and water to wipe down counters, scrub muddy boot prints, and make the whole kitchen smell like sunshine.
The best part? It’s safe around kids, animals, and our food. No harsh residues, just a sparkling clean farmhouse.
Caring for the Animals
Essential oils even sneak into animal care. On stormy nights when the dogs are anxious, a little diluted lavender helps calm them down. In the chicken coop, eucalyptus and citronella keep pests at bay without harsh chemicals.
It’s proof that nature really does provide for every creature under our roof.
Evening Wind-Down
When the day slows and chores are finally done, we circle back to essential oils for one last job — winding down. Citrus oils like sweet orange brighten the mood as we cook dinner, while rosemary helps sharpen the mind when paperwork piles up.
By bedtime, lavender is back in action, filling the farmhouse with a cozy calm. It’s like nature tucking us in for the night.
Why We Trust Them
Sure, essential oils are trendy, but for us, they’re practical. They save money, cut down on chemicals, and add a touch of natural wellness to the farm’s daily rhythm. From sunrise to sunset, they quietly support everything we do — no fancy spa required.
At De’Viar Farms, essential oils aren’t luxuries — they’re partners in the daily flow of farm life. They soothe, energize, clean, and care for animals in ways that are simple but powerful.
And here’s the best part: you don’t need a farm to use them. Just a few small bottles can transform your own routines, making every day feel a little fresher, calmer, and more connected to nature.
