A couple of weeks ago we shared our favorite five essential oils for fall. Of course, being a lavender farmer and beekeeper on the weekends, lavender is my favorite! (Here’s a picture of lavender and oil we distilled at Sherwood Lavender farm in July.)

Now we’d love to know what your favorite oils are and we’ve found a fun tech tool to use called list.ly! I can think of all sorts of uses for list.ly – list your favorite healthy kids snacks, favorite herbs, favorite body parts (for anatomy & physiology students!) … the lists could be endless. But the neat thing about list.ly is it lets blog readers (like you) vote by liking items and these votes are used to reorder the list!

I’ve created this list of essential oils that lets you vote for your favorites. Just click the like button to move your favorites up the list. This list includes just a few of the oils studied in ACHS’s accredited Certificate in Aromatherapy, Diploma in Aromatherapy, and available at the Apothecary Shoppe College store. If you studied with ACHS a while ago you’ll see some new items on the list like carrot seed (Daucus carota) and spikenard (Nardostachys jatamansi). Let me know if you want to see the entire list!
