PA Tea Festival - Vendors, Part III

Tucked behind the tasting building were a few additional vendors, including Nishchal Banskota of Nepal Tea. Also a sponsor of the tea festival, Nishchal offers a variety of organic premium Nepalese teas. Nishchal proudly gives back to the community, making a difference thru tea.
Jo Johnson from New York City represented her business A Gift of Tea where you can discover a unique tea experience from elegant to novelty. Jo also presented a wonderful Tea and Cheese Pairing session on the second day of the event. Darlene Meyers-Perry of The Tea Lover's Archives set up in this area also. And Tea Life Brand out of King of Prussia was here on Saturday.
We were blessed with a beautiful day full of glorious sunshine and blue skies that provided perfect tea drinking weather, particularly on Saturday when the morning temps were a bit chilly.




The Mad Hatter, aka Dennis Mawhinney, joined in the fun. Dennis presented a program on crafting homemade tea flavored vinegar. An entertaining and enthusiastic speaker, he captured the attention of his audience with his energetic style and offered simple ways to combine tea with vinegar to create unique culinary delights.



The giant chair offered a touch of whimsy where attendees could snap a photo with some die-cut tea decor, from tea pot and tea cup to hats and tiaras.

Thank you to everyone that helped make this first annual PA Tea Festival a success. Susanna and Nancy are looking forward to planning and coordinating next year's event, to be held the same time, Friday, September 28 and Saturday, September 29, 2018 in the gardens of The Rosemary House and Sweet Remembrances Tea Room. Don't forget to mark your calendar! Check the website for updates and details! And if you're interested in sponsoring the festival, contact Susanna.

  1. Love seeing these vendors, especially knowing Darlene and Jo were involved. Would have loved sipping the Nepal teas and sitting in the vinegar and tea class. What fun it all sounds.
