Morning mist lifts off the rows of low-growing herbs as you step onto Jurlique’s biodynamic farm in the Adelaide Hills. Stems bend under your hand, rosemary and lavender scenting the air as guides explain when a leaf is ready to be harvested. The experience moves from field to drying room to the workshop bench, where you mix a small aromatherapy blend to take home.

Jurlique began in the mid-1980s as a response to industrial cosmetics — founders moved their production to these cool, elevated hills and adopted biodynamic methods that focus on soil health and seasonal rhythms. The Adelaide Hills sit on ancient, weathered soils and gentle ridgelines; the cool Mediterranean climate helps aromatic shrubs develop concentrated essential oils, which is why this area has long supported orchards, vineyards, and herb beds.
Local culture still carries a mix of agricultural craft and village market life — nearby towns like Hahndorf celebrate farm-to-table produce and artisanal goods. Expect a hands-on, interpretive tour that emphasizes sustainable growing, composting, and careful hand-harvest techniques.
Practical guidance: the two-hour masterclass is a small-group program (up to 10), mostly flat walking on soft soil and gravel; wear closed shoes and bring sun protection. You’ll lay out harvested botanicals in the drying room and receive a jojoba carrier plus three single-note oils to experiment with before choosing your final blend. Allergies to botanical oils warrant advance notice. The tour is suitable for all fitness levels and offers a clear, sensory window into seed-to-skin skincare production.
