Mentorship
We believe that sharing the beauty and knowledge of tea can foster activism, interconnectedness, and mutual support.
Join us to learn, explore, and lead your local community engagement through the art of tea!
2023 Cohort
“ The mentorship was more than just about learning the technique; It was also about creating a space to gather, and connect, whether with each other or simply with ourselves, in quiet celebrations of self-discovery. We are now eager to share this experience with the community, crafting warm spaces of tea and connection. “

2022 Cohort
“I’ve been immersed in community: learning, tasting, and continuing to build a relationship with tea, which in so many ways mimics my relationships with others and to myself. It was so much fun to practice tea set ups and service with the cohort, in preparation for hosting tea in our community gardens. “
- Takiyah Gray
Hands-on practice
“ The teachers brought us new information about Tea Art and Culture every class. Each gathering was transformative, and every student is valued. Joining this mentorship training is the best decision I made for my lifestyle change. I am looking forward to 2024 to serve tea to my communities.”
