Take in fun facts and stats about clary sage:
• Farmers plant clary sage seeds, which are small, just one-quarter of an inch deep. Therefore, getting sage up and growing without rain damage is a top challenge for farmers.
• Avoca exports 100 percent of the sclareolide it produces to European fragrance companies, which sell their fragrances to U.S. manufacturers.

I’d like to know if I could put a few bee hives in your field of sage
I’d like to know if I could put some honeybees in your sage fields.
We are from the Outer banks and will be driving westward through your area mid May. Is there a specific road or roads that would take us past the clary sage fields. I am a dare County Master Gardener Volunteer and also a watercolorist. Being able to smell and take some roadside photos would be a highlight of my year.
Thank you,
