Chilli Herb bouquet - display and then eat (with care...)

We've recently created a stunning, edible posy made entirely of chilli's & herbs grown on the estate. The posy (pictured here) contains: Chilli’s – Sage – Bay – Rosemary & Pepperleaf (Drymis).

The posy makes a beautiful table decoration and can then be hung in a kitchen and dried giving a unique, natural source of herbs (and heat!) to enhance your cooking. We will be offering this through the website and selected stockists.

We really think this is something a little different and besides making a nice gift has to be the ultimate in vegetable recycling!

Hairybikers freewheelin' at Tregothnan

Two of the friendliest motorbike riders you could ever meet visited Tregothnan earler in the year and enjoyed a tea sampling with Jonathon Jones our garden director.

Having tried all the teas in the range they continued their Cornish journey to Kevin Viners restaurant and used Tregothnan Earl Grey tea to create a superb dish with locally caught scallops. The BBC2 TV programme sparked a flurry of interest despite appearing in the early evening. We would love to include a link to the BBC iplayer but it has unfortunately been taken down.
