Fresh lavender is very easy to dry on your own. Simply cut small bunches of fresh flowers and hang them upside down to dry in a warm, dark spot. To avoid dust and bugs, you can place a piece of cheesecloth or a brown paper sack over your flower bunches.
Just check on them so that they are getting proper air circulation. When dry, remove the flower heads and place inside a clean glass container with a tightfitting lid or resealable plastic bags. If you don't have lavender planted in your own garden, visit a lavender farm in bloom. Many of them offer fresh lavender for sale and allow you to cut your own.
