✨ Essential Starr Transitions to Lavender Hill Botanicals

Continuing the Legacy of Light, Love, and Botanical Beauty

Dear Friends and Valued Customers of Essential Starr,

We are delighted to share some exciting news! Effective October 21, 2025, the Essential Starr product line — including our beloved blends and essential oils — is joining forces with Lavender Hill Botanicals, part of Windy Hill Farms, owned by the wonderful Chris and Katie Miller family in the beautiful Amish countryside of Pennsylvania.

After 30 years of creating, formulating, teaching, and sharing the gifts of nature through Essential Starr, it brings me great joy to see these products continue to blossom in such loving and capable hands. When I met Katie earlier this year and visited her stunning 80-acre lavender farm, I was immediately touched by her passion, her craftsmanship, and her beautifully curated farm shop filled with lavender treasures.

As we spoke, it became clear that our visions were aligned — to share the healing power and joy of essential oils with integrity, purity, and heart. Together, we saw how Lavender Hill Botanicals could expand to include many of the signature blends you've come to love from Essential Starr, alongside Katie's exquisite lavender creations.

This transition feels perfectly timed — arriving with the season of harvest and light, coinciding with Diwali, the Indian Festival of Lights. It's a beautiful symbol of illumination and new beginnings, which has always been at the heart of my work with essential oils.

Please know that I'm not going away. I will continue to collaborate with Katie during this transition, ensuring that our formulas maintain their quality, integrity, and energetic signature. I will also remain available for essential oil consultations and guidance, continuing to share my 30+ years of aromatic and herbal experience.

The Essential Starr 5ml essential oils will still carry the familiar label, while the blended products will now appear under Lavender Hill Botanicals — the perfect evolution of our shared vision for natural beauty and holistic wellness.

Thank you, dear friends, for your years of loyalty, inspiration, and trust. We look forward to seeing you continue your aromatic journey with Lavender Hill Botanicals — where the legacy of Essential Starr will shine on in new light.

With warmth and gratitude,

The Blue Oils

The Blue Oils

Patricia Starr @

What are the Blue Oils -- here are some examples:

German Chamomile - Matricaria chamomilla
- powerful essential oil with anti-inflammatory properties, promoting emotions of serenity and soothes areas of concern

Yarrow -- Achillea millefolium
- helps you feel less “blue.” Reach for Blue Yarrow in times of worry when you need help to bring in balance and stability back into your life.

Blue Cypress -- Callitris intratropica
- supports emotional and spiritual functions and helps to stabilize for more balance in life

Blue Tansy - Tanacetum annuum -
- Emotionally, Blue Tansy supports high self-esteem and boosts in confidence.

Blue Sage -- Aratemsia Douglasiana

Blue Artemis -- Greater Mugwort -- Artemisia arboreseens

How these oils are Blue:

Azulenes are a chemical constituent of these oils giving the very distinctive colours which are blue, blue/violet and red/violet. These are known to be highly anti-inflammatory.

These oils are very helpful in blends for bruising and oedema.. As we enter the fall season... consider using these beautiful oils for your emotional and spiritual health.

I love my blue oils -- they enrich my blends so beautifully.

You can see that the last two I neither have in stock or have the knowledge.

What I can say, is that the blue oils have special access to our imagination, our spiritual connection. From the standpoint of the Vedas, Blue represents consciousness.
