In these dark, cold days of February, when too much rain or snow, and WAY TO MUCH ICE, or not enough rain or snow, might be getting you down, we take this week, just in time for Valentine’s Day, to embrace, lean into, and love, the comforts of tea.
We're in conversation with Michael Fritts, founder of Golden Feather Tea in Concow, CA, exploring some of the history and cultivation, the rituals, and the rewards (which are many) of tea.
After more than 15 years at it, and despite massive losses to his garden and farm from the Camp Fire of 2018, Mike joins us to share the ecological, cultural, economic, and personal joys of a traditional Camellia sinensis tea garden in California’s North State. Join us!
