Project Communitea

Hello! It’s been a while since we’ve been active. You may have noticed that we haven’t been around much lately because, after a year of careful reflection, I’ve realized that my true focus is on my mental health work. Selling products just isn’t my passion. At heart, I’m a tea enthusiast and a plant lover, and I’d like to keep it that way.

We still want to engage with our community, so we will soon be transitioning this page into more of a blog format. We plan to continue sharing historical information about Yaupon, uploading digital recipes, creating step-by-step home processing videos, and more. We also want to invite folks to the land this fall for some interactive experiences with our Yaupon trees. Additionally, we will continue traveling around Virginia and beyond to teach others.

Our goal is to educate and inspire our community to build a relationship with Yaupon. A special shout-out to and the for including us in their most recent article. Stay cool, and we’ll be more active soon!

Hey Tea Friends,

As several of my tea friends on the gram have said we are “still steeping”

We will be a bit quiet this summer but will pop up here and there. We will not be offering tea tastings this summer
(May-August). We will exclusively vend for the summer, the website will be updated soon with our new line up of teas. Thanks for continuing to shop online.

Thanks for your continued support.

I am have been in talks with Native Roots Farm Foundation] for awhile now and after learning about their mission and more about the Nanticoke Tribe. I am super excited to share space and work together on some excited things ahead! It is Native American Heritage Month please support this wonderful nonprofit if you are able.

We’re excited to celebrate Native American Heritage Month with you!

Did you know -- November was first recognized as Native American Heritage Month in 1990? The second time was in 1994, and it’s been commemorated annually ever since.

You can recognize this month by joining one of our upcoming programs. Participate in a hands-on class, learn a different side to some of our native plants, get your creative juices flowing, and give your taste buds a treat!
