About this Event

Join us under the trees for this monthly gathering of soulful poetry, rare wild tea and sweet community. Your hosts, Jaguar & Courtnay will guide you through a shared tea ritual, a meditation to listen deeply to nature and the elements around you, tune into what is present in your heart and ponder the mysteries of life. Together we’ll channel a collective poem for these times using Tarot and oracle cards. You will also have an opportunity to share your own poems and express yourself in a safe and supportive container! The theme for this month is “The Space Between.” Everyone is invited to bring their favorite snack to share potluck style.
We will email detailed parking instructions and meeting point to all registered attendees.

COURTNAY ROBBINS
Courtnay is a tea ceremony facilitator as well as a RYT500 certified yoga instructor. She is accredited by the Kyoto Urasenke Tea Association and is the creator of every moment aware - a tea ritual experience and ethically sourced tea brand.
EVERY MOMENT AWARE TEA
In the remote mountains of Northern Vietnam, there are pristine and untouched forests of Shan Tuyết tea trees that have been growing wild for hundreds of years. You may say that some of these trees are the ancestors of modern tea.
Every moment aware teas are harvested and processed by the indigenous Red Dzao community, who have been living alongside these wild tea trees for generations. Every step, from picking to packaging, is done by hand by a dedicated family cooperative, ensuring the highest quality and attention to detail. The tea is produced in small batches, maintaining a personal touch with every harvest.
