Julie says goodbye to Jekka's Herb Farm

Goodbye Julie, and Good Luck

Well known to many of our customers, Julie has worked here amongst the herbs as Farm Manager for 7 years. This month we are very sorry to say goodbye as she moves on to pastures new. Julie will be much missed by staff and customers alike. We wish Julie the very best of luck and happiness for the future, and hope she'll pay us and the herbs a visit now and then!
