About Purple Fence Farm
About Purple Fence Farm
Purple Fence Farm began in the Spring of 2020 just north of metro Denver, Colorado with over 20 years of experience with creating and selling herbal body care. Our goal has been to grow lavender using organic methods, and use it to formulate our sustainable, high-quality bath and culinary products.
At Purple Fence Farm, we hand-harvest our lavender to use in our small batch, natural product line and culinary products. Every ingredient we use is responsibly sourced and lovingly harvested.
Our commitment to all-natural ingredients and eco-friendly practices is not just a business choice; it’s a reflection of our values and our dedication to a healthier world.
Thank you for visiting our online home, and we look forward to sharing our love of lavender with you!

The People Behind the Lavender
Julie Godard, farmer, formulator
I’m the artisan and mad scientist behind Purple Fence Farm's product line. My passion for formulating and co-creating with nature started at a young age, when I’d create products to give away to friends. (My first was a hand-sewn lavender eye pillow! Talk about full circle.)
Since then, I’ve studied how to make things like lip balm, scrubs, balms, medical aromatherapy, as well as classes on how to formulate them with herbs and essential oils to make stellar skin products.
I have sensitive skin, but actually didn’t realize that until I started making all-natural products and realized how much better my skin felt and reacted! So of course, I dived into it and and am thrilled to now have my very own lavender farm!
When I’m not in the studio formulating, or out in the fields harvesting herbs and lavender, I’m hiking with my pup, and taking inspiration from the beautiful Colorado nature surrounding me.
Everything I do at Purple Fence Farms is grounded in three tenets:
Small batch
Every product in our line is handmade. So you’re not buying from a big company hiding behind a quaint website. You’re supporting a passionate, small business with a high-standard for excellence and a desire to bring you the best natural skincare possible. One batch of soap is 34 bars. I stir it, and get my hands in it, (with gloves on, of course!)
I also grow most of the herbs and botanicals we use, and what I don’t grow myself, I ethically harvest from the mountains or source from other small Colorado farms and businesses. I love to hike, and if I happen upon a great patch of arnica, I’ll harvest some for our Apex Muscle Salve. We use Colorado honey and beeswax in some of our soaps and balms, a local Colorado sunflower oil company that does not use solvents or synthetic chemicals during the extraction process, nor do they winterize the oil, like many companies do. The winterization process can strip the oil of nutrients and vitamin E.
Intention
We pour intention into everything. More than just a blend of ingredients, each product is a carefully crafted story that embodies the essence and spirit of Nature and Colorado.
Our rugged mountain peaks are captured in the design of our soap bars. My own musings inspire products like our “Doc Holliday” soap and “Wyatt Earp” lotion. Our “Devil’s Crotch” soap evokes the thrill and scent of the air, skiing down Breckenridge’s famous run.
Each product I make is more than just a blend of ingredients; it’s a carefully crafted story about Colorado that I want to share with you. My passion for thoughtful formulation and meaningful inspiration ensures that each product in our line not only nurtures your skin but also connects you to the places and stories that I love about Colorado.
Sustainable
Let’s face it, We could charge more for our face serum if we put a pretty box around it, but that’s not what we at Purple Fence Farm stand for.
We use minimal packaging, focusing on the actual product, then craft and package it in a way that’s sustainable and kind to the environment. And saves you money as well!
I’m constantly researching sustainable ingredients that are harvested fairly, and studying how to package and ship them to customers with as little waste as possible.
For Purple Fence Farm, it’s not about flashy packaging or profit margins; it’s about crafting exceptional products with a conscience. By focusing on sustainable ingredients and minimizing waste in every step of our process, we ensure that our products are as kind to the planet as they are to your skin.
Ty Ingmire, our business and marketing mastermind
I came to Julie with the idea for Purple Fence Farm with a passion for lavender and a love of SEO and marketing. With my help, what started as a small backyard garden, quickly grew into a full-fledged farming operation.
With my background in business and marketing, I saw an opportunity to share the benefits of lavender with others and turn Julie's talent for natural products into a thriving business.
I'm also our 'farm innovator'. I'm always analyzing the farm operations and figuring out the best processes, procedures, and equipment we need to deliver the best product to you. My ultimate goal is to open Purple Fence Farm to the community.
When I’m not busy tending to the fields or analyzing Google Analytics, I can be found in the nearby mountains with my family.
