About Us

Wilderbee is a family-run destination farm where you can relax and enjoy some of life’s simpler pleasures. We grow certified organic lavender, flowers, and pumpkins for u-pick, pomme fruit for our meads, and raise a conservation flock of rare, British Soay sheep for wool. During summer we hand-harvest and distill our lavender for essential oil using a copper distiller to capture the sweetest floral notes. Our farm store offers our essential oils, hydrosols, lotions, soaps, and balms as well as raw honey, bottles of mead, and unique woodcrafts made by dad. In the barn loft we provide a fully-equipped ceramics studio for adult use through spring and summer.
On weekends visitors can relax and sip our award-winning handcrafted meads at the Mead Werks tasting room and garden overlooking the farm. We specialize in traditional and barrel-aged meads complemented by seasonal batches made with organic farm-grown ingredients. Our twelve-acre property is also home to honeybees, native pollinators, and a diverse ecology of woodland and wetland areas that attract an abundance of wildlife and birds. During open hours we invite you to explore the trails that meander through this nature sanctuary.
