The Source of Our Organic Yerba Maté
|
EcoTeas Organic Yerba Mate comes from a family farm in the state of
Misiones in northeastern Argentina. This region is famous for
producing the highest quality yerba mate. Here the sun, rain,
and soil are perfectly suited to this vibrant plant.
Our organic family farm produces outstanding yerba mate.
While most yerba mate is dried with the use of smoke,
our farmers' smoke-free drying process creates a clean,
smooth yerba mate.

Our family farmers are committed to ecological farming.
Their traditional methods leave dense corridors of native
forest intact. Many of these wildlife-rich lands have never
seen a machete, and they never will.
We have partnered with our farmers to begin an ambitious
project in sustainable agriculture.

Native seedlings ready for planting
|

|
First, we are helping the local subsistence farmers who live
nearby to get certified as organic. Not only will this
protect our farm's watershed, it will preserve these farmers'
traditions and help them achieve environmentally-sound livelihoods.
Next, we're replanting pasturelands with native species to
create habitats where wildlife and yerba mate can coexist.
Together with you, our North American customers, we are
creating long-term solutions that honor the people, plants, and
wildlife that call the rainforest home.
