A little about our hosts Sandra, Michael and Bart from Mudbrick Herb Cottage:
It all began with a cup of chamomile tea back in the ’70s. Sandra still remembers her first sip... From the sweet smell of the dried chamomile flowers to the warm, soothing feeling inside.
That simple cup of tea ignited a lifelong passion for studying and growing herbs. With the arrival of her children, Sandra had plenty of opportunities to use herbs every day.
Together with her husband Michael, they built Mudbrick Herb Cottage into a flourishing business. From a small garden to a thriving nursery, they turned their love for nature into a business. And by carving a place in the hearts and homes of their customers, the Mudbrick family continues to flourish.
'The glory of gardening: hands in the dirt, head in the sun, heart with nature. To nurture a garden is to feed not the body, but the soul.' - Alfred Austin
Working in a wholesale nursery for 8 years taught Michael a lot about growing healthy plants. With Sandra's passion for herbs, they started a nursery and sold their plants in the local farmer's market.
Within a few years, this nursery grew and you can now find 400+ varieties of plants... some of which are rare and hard to come across in Australia.
