Join me at 10am for morning tea and settle in (change your shoes, don your hat, get out your secateurs!) and we’ll set off to the field to cut armfuls of beautiful, aromatic Rose Geranium.

Back in the Dairy we’ll prepare our material…sorting, snipping, weighing…and ultimately distilling and bottling. Each participant will take home a 10ml atomiser and a large bottle of Rose Geranium Botanical Water – so you can refill your face mist, spritz your linen (and of course it’s a treasure for those who iron!).

It will be a heady kind of long morning/early afternoon, one in which to immerse and lose yourself in the aroma and simple, sustaining joy of it all!

I’ll have a simple picnic-style, garden-inspired lunch ready at around 1/1.30…to ensure you don’t have hunger pangs on your rose-geranium scented drive home. And there will be time to linger longer in the garden and potter in the Barn too. Day to end: 2.30/3.00’ish.

 Cost $285.00 per person (*limit 4 participants)

Should the weather prediction for the day be poor, we may need to reschedule. I’ll keep a close eye on the weather reports during the previous week and in regular contact with participants. At worst, we will simply hatch another plan but usually…this is a crystal clear time of year!

*If you have a group of four friends and would like to make a jolly day’s outing, please contact me so we can make a date for a Rose Geranium Day to suit you. This would make a lovely way to celebrate a birthday or simply good catch-up time with a glorious shared activity to enjoy! I’ll also release more ‘open’ dates though, so you can attend as a ‘one’. You will always find friends with similar interests here at Glenmore House :)
