Growing up at my grandparents summer home in Finland, gathering berries from the forest, fish from the lake and water from the well, I learned early on the virtues of the good life-- one lived with health, simplicity and sustainability. Sharing this lifestyle has become my life's work and has taken me, in my 20's, to work as an organic gardener and cook and, in my 30's, to work with sustainable teas. I have developed a number of sustainable tea businesses around the world from Fair Trade Teas and Partners Tea Company in the US to Scarborough Fair Foods in Australia/ New Zealand and have had the opportunity to travel to the origins of tea (stunning places like Sri Lanka, India and Africa) to learn about tea and its impact on people and places. I think that sharing a great cup of tea and conversation is 1 way we can all make a difference and that is what this blog is about-- Tea and Peace...and joy and love.
