Seasonal Sampler

This selection of seasonal steeps is a great way to sample some Homegrown infusions picked fresh from the garden, and help you harmonize in balance with the energy of Summer.

Herbs chosen  for their cooling, cleansing and centering properties celebrate this vibrant season, helping to chill a sometimes over stimulated Pitta, and  nourish our bodies for all the fun ahead. Just like our gardens, it's a time to thrive and replenish our constitutions with the life around us. Enjoy in good health and take time to sip slowly in the shade, and to thank Mother Nature for giving you such a delicious time out.
