From the field to the still: a lavender masterclass
From the field to the still: A lavender masterclass 8th & 9th July 2026
8th July 10am – 2pm £100
From the field to the still, a masterclass in lavender. Spend a day at The Wilde Story learning everything there is to know about lavender. From planting, growing, care, harvesting, distilling and producing a lavender product.
The day begins with tea and coffee, followed by James, the owner of The Wilde Story, taking us out to see the different lavender varieties growing in the fields, teaching you about everything from planting to the distillation.
After all this effort, we then enjoy one of Charlotte’s delicious home cooked Wilde Story lunches. Made using the finest and most local ingredients from our suppliers in Somerset and Dorset. And of course, meat from our own home-reared rare breed pork.
Post-lunch is all about how to use our lavender. Here, Mickie, our skincare practitioner, will walk you through the principles of creating your own balms or skin oils. You will create products that you are able to take home.

Pizza Night
Friday Nights
In 2022, we thought about how to grow the café, making it bigger and better for the lovely folk that come and spend their time at The Wilde Story. So, we decided to buy our first pizza oven, wondering whether it would be a success…
We managed to get an amazing teacher who generously gave us all his recipes, taught and mentored us how to make the best dough. Friday Pizza Nights at The Wilde Story are becoming more popular every week with customers constantly telling us that they are the best pizza’s around!
