Trolley Tour

You'll also stop at The Greenhouse, where tea plants are propagated from cuttings and nurtured in a climate-controlled environment until they're ready for the fields. The greenhouse features advanced technology, including automated watering, shade panels, and climate controls. Your Trolley Guide will share insights into the entire process.

Factory Tour
This FREE tour provides a rare opportunity to learn how tea is made.
Here's your chance to tour America's only tea factory and tea farm. You'll learn all about how tea is made. We designed our tea production building with a glassed in, air conditioned gallery that runs down virtually the entire length of the facility. As you walk along the gallery, you will be looking out onto our factory floor at all the equipment it takes to make tea. Three large TV screens will introduce you to Mr. and Mrs. Bigelow as well as explain in great detail each and every teamaking process.
The Factory tour begins every 15 minutes at the top of the stairs in the Gift Shop.
