Chilli Grower Workshop for Two
About this experience
Immerse yourself in all things chilli with a friend in this Chilli Grower Workshop for Two.
At the Edible Ornamentals chilli nursery, chilli experts will help you learn how to grow your chillies from seed to pepper and get the biggest, most productive plants. If you’ve never heard of Wilbur Scoville and his famous scale then you’ll also discover how the man put his tongue (and those of his brave helpers) on the line so people up and down the country would know how to brag about their chillies correctly.
You’ll enjoy a tasting session of gourmet chilli products from the nursery’s kitchen, as well as a specialised chilli gardening session to top things off in style.
