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.
During these tours you'll experience the process of how we produce the finest English essential oils from the crops 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 guide the tour onto farm tracks, fields and along the hedgerows, finishing with an opportunity to taste some Summerdown treats, made from our famous Black Mitcham peppermint.
We recommend this tour for relatively active people as this tour will cover a considerable amount of walking.
If you have any further questions, feel free to email welcome@summerdown.com
