Harvest & Blend: From Botanical to Fragrance
A walk through Silverbrook’s aromatic fields becomes a botanical study you can hold.
Harvest & Blend is a small agricultural workshop exploring how aromatic plants grown at Silverbrook Manor can inspire and inform fragrance development.
Led by Silverbrook’s Proprietress and sensory designer Mindy Yang, guests begin with a guided crop walk through the farm’s managed meadows, gardens and growing areas. Along the way, participants will observe seasonal herbs and flowers, examine their aromatic qualities and learn how growing conditions, harvest timing and preservation influence scent.
Selected Silverbrook botanicals will be responsibly harvested for evaluation. The group will then move into the farm’s botanical product-development workspace, where Mindy will demonstrate how the aroma of a crop is documented and translated into a fragrance concept.
Using Silverbrook-grown botanicals as the creative and sensory foundation, each participant will compose a small aromatic study to take home. Seasonal botanical bundles and other Silverbrook farm products will also be available for purchase.
Featured plants and materials will vary with the farm’s harvest.
This agricultural program is hosted to demonstrate, promote and support the development of aromatic crops grown at Silverbrook Manor.
