What to expect
You'll travel through Somerset valleys in a comfortable vehicle, stopping at working farms and producers who'll talk you through their approach to land management and food production. This isn't a passive tasting—Florence contextualises everything, connecting what you taste to the soil health, seasonal timing, and environmental choices that made it. Lunch breaks the day midway, offering proper food rather than snacks. Expect to walk around farms, handle cheeses, swirl wines, and ask questions. The experience assumes you're genuinely curious about food systems, not just after Instagram moments.
