With your decision
to enjoy a cup of extraordinary tea, not only do
we bring you the tastes of the finest teas from the plantations
of
Kenya, China, India and other countries around the world,
but
you also help us make a difference. Wherever possible, Totally
Tea
purchases teas that are produced under the authority of the
Organic
Foods Production Act and Fair Trade Certified growers. The
Organic
Foods Production Act certifies that the materials and farming
practices used
help to restore, maintain, and enhance ecological harmony.
Fair Trade
Certification ensures that specific standards for wages,
living situations and working conditions are met. It also
means
that a
portion of the sales goes directly back to the tea workers
to help
meet their community's needs.
In this way, Totally Tea, a family-owned business in Central
Wisconsin, acts as a cultural bridge to increase the trade
and
industry of third world economies.
For us, Totally Tea is more than a business;
it's a mission. First of all, we want to introduce people
to the quality, taste and health benefits of the teas we
enjoy. Secondly, while we offer teas from many different
countries, we use Totally Tea as an outreach for people living
in Kenya, East Africa. By providing culturally-based business
opportunities, we help the people of Kenya work toward self-sufficiency
and financial independence.
We hope you enjoy the Totally Tea
experience.
Sincerely,
The Clary Family
