Welcome to The Herb Farm

First established in the late 1940s by her grandparents, The Herb Farm is being restored to life by Rachel and her husband, John.

Re-establishing the herb gardens and learning the craft of blending teas and herbal teas while they do it, their aim is to be producing teas and other herbal goods made entirely from plants grown on their own land at The Herb Farm within the next two years.

You can follow their progress here on our their website or on social media by searching for The Herb Farm on Facebook and Instagram.
