OPEN HOUSE

June 13, 2018

The business that I have my office inside of had a Ribbon Cutting and Open House event yesterday that I participated in. It was an awesome event. Fuzzy Faces Refuge was here with chinchillas and a mini horse named "Cookie". There were food trucks (Ingredient of Clayton & Flying Scoops Ice Cream). We had door prize drawings (Green Earth Herbals gave away 6 prizes and added to the grand prize). And all the therapists were here with their therapy dogs (assistants). I had my room open and was available to meet and greet folks as they stopped by. And even filled a few orders throughout the day.

So what was going on in the Green Earth Herbals room? I had 3 different teas brewed for tasting: Green Paradise, Chamomile Citrus & Calming Tisane. Everyone loved all 3 but the favorite of the day was the Calming Tisane. Even the kids loved that one (hint: parents, need something to help calm the kids? This just might fit the bill since they all seemed to love it so much.). I was able to introduce the new Aroma Blending Bar. And folks had the opportunity to see what loose leaf teas I have available. We discussed essential oil use (particularly safety and options for use other than ingestion). And we discussed how my services differ from that of an mlm salesperson. It was, in general, an opportunity for me to show my office and explain the services and products I offer. As far as I am aware, I have the first and only Aromatherapy Blending Bar in the area, I am the only Loose Leaf Tea provider in the area, and I'm the only one in the area that provides completely customized blending services with Loose Leaf Teas, Herbs, and Essential Oils.

Missed the Open House? Not to worry. Stop in any time (call ahead or message to be sure I'm not in with a client/private consult). Or, schedule your private consultation or blending bar appointment online https://greenearthherbals.com/services . I'm looking forward to serving you.

RE-LOCATION in progress

We are in the process of relocating and making some major changes. After careful consideration, and much heartbreak, we made the decision to close our storefront location. We just did not have the foot traffic to support a full on coffee/tea bar in the area that we were in. This meant also rethinking how we operate in general. The majority of our client base was custom blending, private consultations, etc. So that is the direction we decided to move towards.

What does this mean, you ask?
It means....that while we will not have a physical storefront we WILL continue to provide the awesome products and services but on a much smaller and much more individual scale. We will not continue with the full coffee & tea bar. And our retail selection will be scaled down tremendously. We will be available by appointment in our new location once we get settled in.

But what will we still be offering? We will still have all of our wonderful Loose Leaf Tea available for purchase. And we will still offer tastings of each of the teas. Our Monthly Tea Club will also remain an available option. We will still offer our herbs individually and custom blended. We will still offer our custom blended essential oils and accessories. We will be offering MORE classes, herbs and essential oils, both group and individual. We will be offering more accessories for those that want to DIY their herbal and essential oil preparations (bottles, jars, roll-on bottles, misters, etc). We will be adding a few of the most important Nature's Sunshine Products as well (Colloidal Silver, Histablock, Hydrangea, Nature's Fresh, Probiotics, Food Enzymes, and much more). And we will have a PRIVATE office to meet with you and to help you with your custom blends.

Where will we be located? I am so thrilled to announce that I will have my private office inside of Animal Assisted Therapy of the Triangle located at 34 Oleander Dr, Clayton, NC 27527 (I will be in suite L2). This is much smaller but much more cozy than our previous location.
Many of our wonderful stock products will also remain available through Unique Gifts by Jacqueline in downtown Clayton as well.

Pictures of the new space will be coming very soon.

Herbal Teas coming soon!!!!

Things have been moving right along for us at The Tea Hut. Since introducing teas to The Soap & Coffee Hut we've had opportunity talk with so many folks about what they are looking for in a tea. One of the most requested things has been a tea that supports and promotes a healthy state of life. So let me put this here first.......we do not diagnose, treat, cure or prescribe anything for any disease. We leave that up to the medical professionals. But what we DO provide, is a selection of herbal blends that are intended to not only be flavorful, but to also promote a healthy well-being by supporting natural and proper body function without actually treating a named disease.

With that now out of the way......we can tell you that in our Herbal Tea line we will have teas that support healthy function of body systems. We can also assist you in learning what herbs may need to be avoided due to certain medications you may be taking. This is not to offer medical advice, but rather to ensure that you are using herbal teas in a safe manner. Keep in mind, that while herbal teas may support healthy function of any body system, you also must be responsible with what you take into your body as well as your activity level.

Our herbs are scheduled to arrive Wednesday June 29th. And we will begin blending our Herbal Teas as soon as they are unpacked and added to inventory. A few of the blends we will have available are: Digestive, Circulatory, Mommy's Milk, Mommy To Be, Happiness, Sleep Well, Vivid Dreams, Tea For Her, Tea For Him, Cleanse, Athlete's Friend, Relax, Focus, Throat Soothe, and more to come. Our individual herbs are also available for those that like to create their own custom blends at home.

But our Herbal Tea selection doesn't stop there. We will also be offering a selection of Tubby Teas. These aren't intended to be sipped.....but rather enjoyed in the tub. Let's face it, a nice long hot bath, sipping on a perfectly brewed cup of tea is one of life's most relaxing moments.

OFFICIALLY OPEN FOR BUSINESS

YAY!!!!! WE ARE OPEN FOR BUSINESS!!!

Above is a panoramic view of the store with the new coffee & tea bar added. This would be the reason it's been a while since I've posted here. I've been working hard at getting the coffee & tea bar ready to open.

So we've opened with a small selection of coffees from a local roaster, Larry's Coffee. We have both coffee for brewing and espresso for beverages as well as bagged coffee for purchase to take home and brew your own. The retail bagged coffees are whole bean. But if you do not have a grinder at home we are able to grind it for your at no additional charge.

As for teas.....Oh my do we have teas for you. We have started with a selection of over 20 loose leaf teas (some single origin and others are blends and some are tisanes) from 3 different companies. We tasted and tested so many teas we thought we would just float away if we tried any more. LOL I had to narrow the list down quite a bit though. We originally had something like 35 or 40 teas on the list. What we've started with will grow as we grow.

I will be adding my own blend of herbal wellness teas within the month too. There are many companies that offer wellness teas already blended. However, I want to be able to blend my own making it much easier for me to customize them for individual tastes and needs. As many may know I've been using herbs in our household, and to help others, for over 20 years now. So wellness teas are something that I love to blend. And as I become more familiar with blending purely for flavor I will begin blending my own regular line of teas as well.

So stop on in at The Soap & Coffee Hut for a coffee or tea, and do a little shopping for Mother's Day & Teacher Appreciation Week while your beverage is being blended! Sit & Sip or Grab & Go!! Either way we'd love to have you stop in.
