We
started Quintessential Leaf Tea Company in 2003 with
the goal of providing exceedingly high quality tea
to discerning tea drinkers. As we learned the amazing
benefits of organic farming, it became clear that we
only wanted to carry tea that is grown on estates that
utilize organic farming techniques. We also wanted
to ensure that the wonderful people processing our
tea are |
treated fairly.
We decided that the most effective way
to do this was to become a part of TransFair USA. A fabulous
organization that guarantees that farmers and workers
receive a fair price for their product. The Fair Trade
price also means that farmers can feed their families
and that their children can go to school instead of working
in the fields. |
