Rick and Betty Cattinari have six children—two biological children together, and four from Betty’s side. Rick has over 30 years of experience in surveying and is passionate about hunting, fishing, and spending time outdoors. Growing up on a farm, he fondly remembers hunting with his dad and brother, Mario.

Betty, on the other hand, loves spending quality time with the family, and is passionate about creating handcrafted lavender products that are gentle and safe for all skin types. With an Esthetician license and a background in skincare, she is dedicated to educating others on how to protect their skin using natural ingredients—lavender being her personal favorite! Together, Rick and Betty are committed to teaching their children the value of hard work and teamwork.
