The rape plant flowers in May and June and its yellow flowers briefly convert the landscape into a brilliant carpet of colour. The plant can grow up to 6’ in height and when harvested in July it yields tiny, jet back seeds. The seeds are stored directly behind the press house, from where they are fed directly into the hoppers and very slowly cold pressed to produce oil. This is then filtered and allowed to stand for four weeks before it is bottled by hand on the premises
