Our next Open Days are March 30, 31 & April 1st, 2012
10am - 4pm
A wonderful day out, come and visit our small independent nursery. Browse and buy from one of the largest collections of herbs in the UK, including rare, tropical and wildflower species, which can be difficult to find elsewhere. Meet award-winning Jekka, take a sneak preview of the herb plants we're growing for our clients including the Chelsea Flower Show, and pick up expert tips and advice.
Jekka's Open Days are a unique opportunity to handpick your organic herb garden, to take advantage of special offers and learn all about how to grow herbs organically, and the day-to-day workings of an organic herb farm.
Writer and broadcaster, Jekka holds a FREE farm talk twice daily, as well as (pre-bookable) herb workshops. You can also buy signed copies of Jekka's books, our range of aromatic, organic, whole leaf herbal teas, and our extensive collection of herb seeds.
We’re open to the public on each open day from 10am until 4pm.
Entry is free on the Friday, whilst on Saturday and Sunday the entry charge is £2 per person.
Entry is free if you have pre-booked for a workshop, and also for Catalogue holders, members of the RHS, members of the Herb Society, West of England Herb Group and the Soil Association.
Pre-booked workshops take place at midday on each open day and last approximately 45 minutes.
Free farm talks take place at 10.30am and 2.30pm on each day, lasting approximately 20 minutes - no booking required.
You can place orders for collection at any open day, simply allow at least 48 hours notice.

“I was at your Open Day yesterday with a friend. We travelled about 85 miles to be there - and it was so worth it! It was wonderful to see the huge selection of herbs - plants and seeds - but the most inspiring part was the talk by Jekka at 10.30...that made all the difference and has set us happily on the course, not just of growing more herbs, but of using them more in cooking as well as cosmetics.Thank you so much.” P.
