The road to health is through Peppertree

We have been asked where the name of the practice comes from.
​When Barbara purchased the practice in 2012, she named it after the farm owned by Barbara and her husband Errol.
​The farm was named for the old pepperina trees growing on the property.
The photos on this website are taken of the eponymous "Peppertree", the farm. The tree in the photo is a variety of scrub tree, and the pepperina trees are out of view from this angle.
