Savor Every Moment There's so much good in a cup of tea. It clears our mind and boosts our spirits. Tea brings us closer to friends and family looking to share the day's stories and it connects us to all those around the globe who cherish this timeless ritual. Why Organic? Since their inception in 1989, Choice Organic Teas has questioned the quality of existing conventional teas produced with the aid of destructive synthetic chemicals. These chemicals devastate not only the soil used to cultivate tea (and any other food), but systematically destroy the surrounding ecosystem and the health of the very people who farm the land. Improved soil fertility Better for wildlife Safer for humans Why Fair Trade In 2000, Choice Organic Teas became the first tea crafter to adopt Fair Trade Certified tea in the United States. Choice Organic Teas partnered with Fair Trade USA to write the guidelines that established a Fair Trade Certification process for the entire tea industry, as the hierarchy of the tea estate owner/manager to the worker who plucks the tea differs greatly than from the coffee industry. Fair Trade USA previously established Fair Trade certification in the United States for the coffee industry in 1999. Fair Trade certification addresses the injustices of conventional trade, which traditionally discriminates against the poorest workers in economically developing or third-world countries. Products from economically developed countries such as Japan and the United States cannot qualify for Fair Trade certification. Today more than half of Choice Organic Teas' offerings are Fair Trade Certified, far surpassing the numbers of any other tea company in the United States. The development of Fair Trade Certified tea standards guarantees fair wages, respectable living and working conditions, and worker-managed premium. This premium represents additional funds, which are paid by Fair Trade registered importers like Choice Organic Teas directly to tea workers. It empowers them to improve their own lives. The workers collectively decide how they wish to manage the Fair Trade funds.
