Okay, so Aloe Vera is pretty big, if that makes sense around this farm, in a way. It’s not just, arguably, that spiky plant you see at your local supermarket. They go, very honestly, into all the different properties, how to grow them, and the uses of Aloe Vera, very, in depth, so to speak.

Herb Walk: Unleash Like Your Inner Herbalist

The herb part of, also, that exploration felt like stepping into a super tiny, pretty scented apothecary. Walking with the farmer (or someone with enough knowledge about the herbs grown), you, in fact, discover all kinds of local herbs. Like, some are quite well known to people such as Rosemary, Thyme, and stuff like that, yet some are not well known that you are only now learning about from the locals at the farm. You learn, clearly, what they use the herbs for, some very old remedies, a bit of history and then how they’re grown on that farm. I liked sniffing different herbs, I’m talking that super aromatherapy session in a natural and gorgeous environment. And the farm tends to bring it, which I can vibe with.

Tasting Time: Sampling Local Flavors
