Your journey begins with a warm welcome of freshly baked scones and a cup of the farm’s finest tea. As you sip, your host shares the fascinating history of the farm and its legacy of tea-making.

Next, stroll through rows of vibrant Purple Tea fields. Here, you’ll take part in the gentle ritual of tea picking, guided by experts who show you the art and tradition behind every leaf.

The experience continues with a hands-on tea-making session. You’ll roast, roll, dry, and pack your own unique tea blend—a personal treasure to take home.
