Peshok Tea Garden

Peshok Tea Garden is one of the Sight Seen From Takdah where tourist visit the Peshok Tea Garden and enjoys the beautiful scene at Tea Garden. The Peshok Tea garden village is located in Rangli Rangliot Tehsil of Darjiling district in West Bengal, India. It is situated 5.3km away from sub-district headquarter Takdah..

British owners who controlled 90% of the tea plantations in the Darjeeling Himalayan hill region started selling off their properties in 1947 and by 1956, the ownership of many tea gardens changed hands. It was a difficult situation for the young inexperienced Indian owners and fierce competition in tea auctions demanded improvements in the standards of the tea industry. There have been improvements but the going has been tough for many tea gardens.

The Peshok Tea Garden was shut down in 2017 by the Alchemist Group owned by K.D. Singh, a Trinamool Congress member of the Rajya Sabha. However, there is no formal notification about the closure. There are reports about the Alchemist Group having sold two other tea gardens - Dooteria and Kalej Valley. An effort has been made by the workers to run Peshok Tea Garden with hand-made tea. Gorkha Janmukti Morcha is the predominant trade union in the 87 tea gardens of the hill region.
