You’ve grown something real. Now it needs to hold its value beyond the field.

This is a focused working session for farmers, growers, and small producers who want to translate what they’ve cultivated into products people understand, trust, and choose—on a shelf, at a market, or online.

Led by Silverbrook Manor's Mindy Yang, this session draws on years of experience designing products, packaging, and sensory systems for global brands, hospitality groups, and emerging producers.

What We Cover

• How to position your product so it reads clearly (and sells)

• Packaging that protects, preserves, and elevates—not overcomplicates.

• Label language: what to say, what to avoid, what actually matters.

• Pricing architecture that reflects your work and your market.

• Turning raw ingredients into cohesive, desirable product lines.

• Avoiding common mistakes that quietly kill good products.

Format: 

A small-group workshop or 1:1 working session. Bring your product, your questions, your half-formed ideas—we’ll shape them in real time. You’ll leave with a clear direction, practical next steps, and a sharper point of view on how your product lives in the world.

Who It’s For:

Farmers, growers, and makers who are ready to move beyond “just selling” and into building something intentional.

Alternate format options are available:

• Group Workshop (at Silverbrook Manor): Seasonal sessions, limited seats

• Private Intensive: 90-minute deep dive tailored to your product

• Zoom Workshop: Monthly session, limited seats

• On-Farm Advisory: By request, for more complex product lines.

There’s a brief moment in spring when the land offers itself freely—wild, vibrant, and gone before you know it.

At Silverbrook Manor, we step into that window together.

We’ll walk the land and learn to recognize what’s rising now—wild onions, garlic, and tender nettles—plants that have fed people quietly for generations. You’ll harvest your own bundle, guided by season, intuition, and respect for the land.

We return for light refreshments and a shared recipe exchange—simple, social, and designed to carry the experience forward into your own kitchen.

What You’ll Experience

• Guided forage + plant identification

• Hands-on gathering (your take-home bundle)

• Light seasonal refreshments

• A collaborative recipe swap (compiled and shared after)

  Duration: ~2–3 hours

  Capacity: 15 guests max

  What to bring: Comfortable shoes, a basket (optional), bug repellent, and a recipe if you’d like to share

• 10% off for Farm Club members with code

  Farm Club Members: Complimentary self-guided foraging access during designated windows is always welcome.

A walk through meadow and woodland becomes a fragrance you can hold.

Forage & Blend is a 3-hour private experience where guests explore the living landscape of Silverbrook Manor alongside world-renowned sensory designer Mindy Yang. Discover aromatic plants, flowers, and natural materials while learning how scent emerges from place, season, and perception.

This experience begins outdoors, moving slowly across fields, gardens, and forest edges in guided observation and conversation. Guests gather inspiration from the land before transitioning into the historic manor house, where the walk evolves into tangible creation.

Inside the atelier, each guest composes a personal fragrance using a curated palette of professional perfumery materials, guided by impressions formed during the walk. The experience concludes with light refreshments and quiet reflection within the manor and a finished perfume to carry home.

Intimate, seasonal, and limited in availability, Forage & Blend offers a rare opportunity to encounter fragrance as landscape, craft, and memory.

For many guests, the atelier becomes an introduction to the broader creative and agricultural life of Silverbrook Manor. Those wishing to remain connected may later explore Farm Club, a small, seasonal community that participates in harvest moments, gatherings, and creative sessions across the estate.

Tickets are 10% off for Farm Club Members with code.

At the edge of spring, the land awakens our senses.

Join the proprietors of Silverbrook Manor for an intimate guided tour of their regenerative research farm, an unfolding landscape shaped by season, soil, and slow intention.

It's a chance to walk the grounds with us, to understand what is being grown here, both in the earth and beyond it.

Guests will be led through the property, with reflections on our early plantings, regenerative approach, and the experiences taking form for the season ahead.

Along the way, you'll meet our animals, we’ll share tastings and light refreshments from the farm, subtle expressions of what this land yields, alongside a curated offering of plants and seeds for those who wish to carry something home.

We will introduce the Silverbrook Farm Club, our membership offering first access to PYO produce, private gatherings, including Forage & Blend, sensory training and wellness programs, forest bath & tea sessions, planting days, and seasonal salons designed around the rhythm of the land.

This event is FREE for Silverbrook Manor Farm Club members. Those who join us as members will receive a welcome gift from the farm through June, a small gesture to mark the beginning.
