What happens on the day?

You’ll be escorted around the nursery with your expert guide who will delve into the history of the chillies grown in the nursery, from the medium hot Jalapeño Pepper to the fiery Carolina Reapers.

Pick up tips and recipe ideas and even learn about their natural health benefits. The two of you will also visit the shop where you will try the delicious gourmet sauces. Samples of the sauces and fresh chillies will be available for you to taste so you can decide which you want to pick for yourself and take home, ready to use in your next meal.
