Brew a Cup of SerendipiTea

Appreciation for tea is growing in the United States, afterall, it's the second most consumed beverage in the world after water. And we’ve certainly covered several companies here on TreeHugger. We like that many are focusing on fair trade and organic while keeping the quality high. Thanks to Daily Candy, we are now adding to the list SerendipiTea, a tea company based on Long Island, NY. Their philosophy is simple, and right up our alley: “We are environmentally responsible, utilizing organic farms and all-natural products. We are committed to Earth-friendly packaging including post-consumer recycled and biodegradable materials and water-based inks. We are socially responsible, employing people not machines, opting for handcrafted rather than machine-milled.” We are amazed at the number of organic teas SerendipiTea offers and if you’re curious you can sign up for one of their lectures and tea tastings offered to the public. SerendipiTea is committed to education and events are even conducted around the United States. Via ::Daily Candy ::SerendipiTea
Actually they're based in Long Island City, which is a section of Queens in NYC. But I do recommend them heartily--I particularly love their fair-trade, organic Ceylon green tea.
Was suprised to SerendipiTea, my favorite tea. Freshly brewed, it's some of the best-smelling tea you've ever had!
Serendipitea has the absolute best tea on the market. Congo Bongo is my favorite! HAd it the first time at Ruby Foos in manhattan and have been addicted ever since( 3 years)!
