☞ All our herbal tea blends are created from medicinal plants grown on our farm and carefully selected during our harvests, which are always done by hand. We harvest yarrow flowers at their peak over a period of just 1 month. Raspberry leaves in dry weather throughout the summer. Nettle is one of the first plants to show up in the spring, we harvest young tender shoots for a few cuts per season. Mugwort, with its intoxicating smell, is harvested only once a year, when it is at the best time of the very beginning of its flowering.
☞ The plants are then spread out on grids and inspected a second time before being dried at low temperature (around 35C) in a dark dryer; thus we preserve all the properties and the delicate taste of each plant.
☞ Once dry, the plants are cleaned of their stems and other small unwanted pieces, always by hand; they are then blended, potted and labeled in our processing kitchen and stored in a cool, dark room.
☞ Behind each herbal tea there is a lot of sun, pure and fresh air, irrigation from the sky or by human intervention as well as a passionate team of thunder who put a lot of energy from the first seed in the ground in the month of February, to the thousands of small seedlings transplanted in the greenhouse all spring, to the big harvests and the arduous weeding under the radiant sun of the summer months, until the gardens are closed during the cold months of autumn to prepare them to be reborn again next spring, reminding us that everything has a cycle.
☞ The result: fresh, tasty, local products filled with active ingredients!
