Algonquin Tea Company

For over 22 years, we have been making herbal teas from amazing plants that grow in one of the truly beautiful places of the world — known to paddlers, campers and nature lovers as Algonquin Park (pronounced al-gone-kwin).

Many people, from around the world, have stories about visits to this area. Imagine a park with over 2,300 lakes, 1.9 million acres, no electricity or wifi, just vast untamed spaciousness, abundance of wild plants and animals, moose and bear and wolves as neighbours. It’s a place that asks you to paddle hard in the wind, lets you float while watching eagles and dragonflies, fills your nostrils with pine and cedar oil, and opens your heart as the loons call from lake to lake.

Even though a million people come each year, they vanish quickly into the park, portaging themselves to distant campsites, and you find yourself being transported to a simpler time, and transformed by an awareness of the vast intelligence and sentience of the earth herself. Humbled in this presence you realize the wild part of you knows this place, and you carry it in your heart and long to return as soon as you leave. This area inspired many artists, including the renowned Group of Seven.
