Being organic and biodynamic means more to us than just being chemically free. It's about the way your food is grown and handled with our entire ecosystem being integrated and linked. Soil. Plants. Animals. Food. People. Environment. Everything is connected to each other and is a part of the greater whole.
Biodynamic - Demeter Certified
Biodynamic farming goes beyond that of organic. It uses composts made from herbs, such as chamomile and valerian. Based on Rudolph Steiner's philosophy, it also takes into account the moon's cycle and other cosmic influences. Foods grown biodynamically are said to be in alignment with the entire universe.
All teas in the Hampstead Tea range carry the Demeter logo, guaranteeing that they have been biodynamically grown. Hampstead Tea's partner estate, Makaibari was the first biodynamic tea estate in the world - that's some great achievement!
