Farming pure Ceylon Tea, requires skills and patience passed down through generations. Ceylon tea dominated the black tea markets through the 1990's at which time world-wide competition and the organic movement disrupted the Sri Lankan tea industry.
Young farmers questioned these practices with new hands-on skills and data-based decision tools. These entrepreneurs strive to bring sustainability to the plantations, workers and businesses themselves.
As worldwide customers become more concerned for their health, farmers health and environmental stewardship, Sri Lankan farmers are taking major, historic leaps to change both the tea farming culture and farming techniques.
“Pure” means farmed and processed in Sri Lanka. The tea may be organic or conventionally grown. “Organic” means both natural and "as defined in law by the National Organics Board in the USA". Our tea is pure and organic.
Like early agriculture in the United States, farming pure Ceylon tea in Sri Lanka started as organic in the mid 1800’s, moved to industrial agriculture during the 1940’s to late 1980’s and is now reinventing itself as farmers are re-learning the relationship of “growing the soil” first and the plants will follow. Growing organic tea sustainably is necessary for the industry to survive.
Like all farmers around the world, Ceylon tea farmers were and remain curious about the life cycle of their plant Camellia sinensis. "How can I make my crop more drought tolerant, more robust, able to grow faster and able to resist disease and ultimately more profitable." Research institutions like the Sri Lanka Tea Research Institute also ask and research these questions.
