If it helps. Here is an introduction to us. We don't talk about staffing as we are the staff but it will show you some of our operations. Timmy is the main farmer and he does the majority of the farm work. youtu.be/lOsvVoaiia4?...

It is harvested by hand or with a mechanical harvester. It is harvested by us the owners and one local paid staff member. This is about as close to farm to table as it gets. As of today, we touch every bag of tea that leaves our farm from harvest, to processing to packing.

Every leaf tells the story of an incredible amount of hard work, care, and a dream to grow quality tea right here in the USA. From small beginnings to thriving rows, this is more than farming, itโ€™s proof that American-grown tea isnโ€™t just possibleโ€ฆ itโ€™s flourishing.

Study finds microplastics in your tea... and posh brands are the worst With more than 100 million cuppas drunk every day, tea has long been Britain's favourite beverage.

Two crimes here... the microplastics and the amount of ads in the article. ๐Ÿ˜

Loose leaf tea for the win!

Not everyone has the same experience with our tea as we do. This can be due to many factors. But when it comes to brewing the perfect cup of tea, many people focus on the type of tea leaves, steeping time, and water temperature. However, one often-overlooked factor is the pH level of the water.
