This weekend is the Northwest Tea Festival. Eric and I went last year and had such a good time!
This year, it’s 10am -6 pm on Saturday Oct. 1st and 10am- 4pm on Sunday Oct. 2nd. The event is free, but with a $10 donation, you will receive an adorable little porcelain cup for tea tasting.
There are many different kinds of tea vendors with samples and many of them have small sample bags of loose-leaf tea either as free samples or that you can buy and take home. Eric and I came home with a bag full of tea last year and had a blast for days afterward trying a new type of tea every time we made a cup. They also have informational sessions teaching you about tea, etc. To see the program for this year, click here. Anyone planning on going this year?

Thanks for the heads-up…you know how I feel about tea ;-). But, I have a guest in town who might be interested…and a trip to Seattle Center was on our agenda anyway 🙂
It was fun meeting you and Eric at Tea Lady booth at the NW Tea Festival
in Seattle under the Space Needle! I love your blog! I’m going to make
your recipe Polenta with Mushrooms & Kale! I can’t wait to see the photo
pics of the giant yellow Tea Lady tea pot!~~! She helps folks navigate to find
our family-owned shop in Olympia wearing her life energy color of bright yellow!
Great to meet you, too, Melinda! Glad you like the blog. Stay tuned for the tea festival post! 🙂
