Farm to table food has been lauded for its sustainability and it s been a feature on restaurant menus for years, but what about using farm-fresh ingredients at the spa?
These days, the poshest spas in Northern California s most gorgeous settings are incorporating local, seasonal ingredients into their lotions and potions for massages, facials and more. The fresher the product, the more more nutrient dense, which means greater efficacy of the products. Plus, when you re slathered down with the lavender that grows just outside, you get a unique connection to the land around you.
