Description Features Use and Care Specs

Organic Ginger Green Tea is blended locally in small batches by Heidi, a certified master gardener and herbalist. This aromatic organic tea is a delight to the eyes and nose. The ingredients are all organic: orange peel, ginger root, peach skins, and fair trade organic green tea.

Products with the icon "New England made" are produced in one of the following six states: Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. Purchasing regional products reduces the transportation carbon footprint.

Products with the icon "pesticide-free" have plant-based ingredients that are grown without the use of synthetic pesticides. A sticky fly trap is an example of a pesticide-free pest control product, where no pesticides are put into the environment during production or use. While products like this lack organic certification, they are still known to be pesticide-free.

Products with the icon "socially responsible" are produced by groups or companies who strive to implement fair labor practices that provide workers an opportunity to earn a living wage, a safe and healthy working environment, and reasonable work hours while prohibiting child and slave labor. Many industrious small groups and cooperatives manage their own affairs and produce quality products, often for export. These groups are sometimes too small or can not afford the expense of fair trade certifications, but may still uphold many of the same socially responsible standards. Large companies may use SA8000 standards or their own equivalent socially responsible policies to support their workers' labor conditions. This icon is used for products manufactured outside of the USA.

Products with the icon "compostable" are generally made of once-living organic matter, usually solid, which easily breaks down into simpler forms of matter. This happens under normal composting environments without any toxic by-products, creating a rich fertilizer which is considered safe for agricultural use. Compostable products can keep waste out of the landfills.
