Conservation,one cup at a time.

High quality teas from Certified Elephant Friendly farms that protect the majestic endangered Asian elephant.

OUR STORY

In 2012, a team of international wildlife experts -- including our founder -- began working with communities in India to solve a deeply troubling problem: The endangered Asian elephant was declining rapidly towards extinction, and the impact of the tea agriculture industry was contributing to their endangerment. In 2016, their work led to the Elephant Friendly Certification program -- and identified improved practices for tea farmers to protect these beloved animals. Two years later, Elephant Origins Tea was founded to support elephant conservation by introducing tea lovers across the globe to Certified Elephant Friendly tea.
