Seilich Botanicals We operate a nature positive business model, creating more meadows each year!

For the purest freshest skincare, we make natural skincare that’s good for nature; with ingredients grown in our wildflower meadow in Scotland, by botanist Dr Sally Gouldstone.

Hear from Seilich’s gardener Naomi on the surprising benefits of hungry hares 🌱🐇

At first, we noticed the hares munching on some of the young plants… but over time, we realised they were actually helping. Their grazing acts almost like natural pruning, encouraging the plants to grow back bushier and stronger.

It’s a beautiful reminder that at Seilich, we work with nature — and nature often knows best. 💚

Honoured to have been named Winner of Sustainable Lifestyle Product of the Year 2026 for Seilich Meadow Blend Tea.

The judges recognised our Meadow Blend Tea for its combination of biodiverse agriculture, regenerative cultivation and a genuine commitment to nature restoration. Grown, harvested and dried within species-rich UK wildflower meadows, the tea was praised for showing how consumer products can actively support habitat recovery, pollinators and soil health while delivering a high-quality botanical infusion.

They also highlighted the authenticity behind the brand, noting that meaningful sustainability is rooted in evidence, transparency and measurable ecological impact - values at the heart of everything we do at Seilich.

In all the excitement of yesterday here at Chelsea Flower Show I forgot to share the most incredible news of all, that we bloody won Chelsea’s Sustainable Excellence Award for Product of the Year! Or should I say our wonderful Meadow Blend Tea did. So glad that the wonderful of was with me to celebrate the win, a win for our meadows and a win for all Wildlife Friendly certified growing practices 🙌. It was great to have a chat with sustainable business guru and the incredibly knowledgable Professor Chris Harrop too. What a day.

Oh my goodness, what an absolutely crazy three days that was! But we did it!! Our first ever stand at RHS Chelsea Flower Show is built! So proud of all the work that went into it. The meadow looks incredible and all the plants are faring well in the London climate. The show starts today (it’s a six day epic!) and we’ll continue to post as the week goes on. Huge thanks to everyone who had helped to get us here, it really is amazing. Feeling very excited!!!

We’re incredibly proud that our Meadow Blend Tea has been shortlisted as a finalist for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show Sustainable Excellence Award

As the UK has lost 97% of species-rich lowland meadows since the 1930s, our Meadow Blend Tea is grown within habitat systems designed to help reverse that decline.

Global herbal tea supply chains are typically dependent on intensive monoculture systems, long-distance transport and limited traceability, often emphasising flavour or health claims rather than land-use impact. By contrast, Seilich Meadow Blend Tea is grown within a habitat-first system whereby production does not displace biodiversity but sustains it.

Production of our Meadow Blend Tea requires the restoration of species-rich meadows, which in turn:
🌼 Provides pollinator habitat
🌱 Protects soil carbon through non-ploughed perennial systems
🚫 Avoids synthetic fertilisers and pesticides
🇬🇧 Reduces reliance on imported botanicals
📚 Educates consumers about regenerative horticulture

Each purchase contributes directly to habitat creation and stewardship.

We find out on Monday 🤞🏻whether we’re the winner, but being recognised as one of the final three already feels incredibly special.

Come out to our wildflower meadow and workshop outside Edinburgh to learn how to make your own skincare products!

You’ll be welcomed into the workshop with a cup of herbal tea before we head out into our wildflower meadow to talk about the wildflowers that are in season and their properties. You’ll then have the opportunity to pick some flowers/leaves that you’d like to work with.; Back in the workshop we’ll make botanical extracts from your bouquets, from oil infusions to tisanes. These will then form the basis of your products - each participant will leave the workshop with at least two products. In the past we’ve made things such as face oil’s, serum’s, lotion’s, cleanser’s and eye gel’s.

Choose from the below dates:
