Curious? An Herbal Tea Farm in Spring
An herbal tea farm is a busy place this time of year!
Curious? What we've been up to...
Bundles of Botanical Bairns
Our wee ones have arrived!
Each spring we replant our annual ingredients and replace perennials lost over the winter.
This month:
+700 Stevia
+600 Pineapple Sage
+70 Lemon Balm
+70 Lavender
It's been a busy month!
Sunshine with Wings
...and our honeybees have a new home.
We welcomed a new swarm of honeybees to the farm this month.
The pollinators help make our farm healthy and productive.
And, they are definitely the hardest workers on our farm!
These girls get to live in our new Langstroth hives.
This hive design in new for us, but we are excited to embark on this experiment and we hope these bees thrive here!
Welcome, little ones!
Beyond the Fields
We've also been busy making upgrades outside our cultivation fields this month.
Our entry signs got a face-lift this month.
Local engravers at Backcountry Goods Trading are making our farm easier to find.
Creating shady spaces...
Visitation interest has been on the rise, so we are making some improvements to the barn to enhance guest experience!
Seating, shade, more thriving & beautiful plants...
What's not to love?!
Seasonal Suggestion
Avalanche Lake Blend
Tarragon, Lemon Balm & Spearmint. Together, these ingredients are among the first in our field to emerge.

+Fresh

(everything we love about this time of year)
Our tip: Drink it cold.
*so refreshing*
As always, valuable customer:
Thank you
I'm honored to be your herbal tea farmer.
Be well,
