We’ve been growing, harvesting and distilling our very own Black Mitcham peppermint for almost three decades, all from our family farm in the Hampshire countryside.  Throughout June, July and August the farm team get busy harvesting and distilling over 300 acres of beautifully fragranced Camomile, Peppermint and Lavender herbs.

On this tour you'll experience the process of how we produce the finest English essential oils from the herbs we grow in our fields. It will be a real treat for your senses as we  meander through our fields, visit our on-site distillery and listen to our Master of Mint, Ian Margetts as he talks through the journey of our herbs.

We'll start our time together with coffee and biscuits then head out onto the farm tracks, fields and along the hedgerows, finishing with an opportunity to taste some Summerdown treats, rooted in our world famous Black Mitcham peppermint.

Although the weather wouldn't deter us if it is a bit 'British' it might affect the experience, so we'll have a wet weather alternative.  The seasonal weather also has a direct influence on our ability to harvest from the field and distil, but we will endeavour to demonstrate all we are able to on the day.  Suitable footwear for uneven ground and muddy tracks is essential. 

After booking your tour we will email you within 7 days giving full details of the event.  A full refund is available up to 14 days prior to the tour date.  If cancelling within 14 days prior to the tour date, an exchange to a different tour of the same value can be offered.

We can accommodate bespoke farm visits and group tours, so for more information or if you have any further questions do feel free to email welcome@summerdown.com.
