Holiday Tea Gifting

Sharlee Dunolly-Lee

The festive season invites us to slow down, reconnect and share moments of grounding with the people we care about. Each hand-crafted blend is steeped in place, story and gentle ritual, with native bush tucker botanicals, organic loose leaf tea and deep care for Country.
When you gift our teas, you offer a moment of pause, connection to Country, and a meaningful way to return to nature and oneself. Made to be gifted thoughtfully and enjoyed in still, quiet moments, our blends honour the long histories of bush tucker plants, their natural aromas, superfood benefits and the cultural knowledge carried across generations.

Gift the Taste of Country

Summer on Dja Dja Wurrung Country traditionally aligns with Wurrumuk and Dhurung time (Long-necked Turtle and Seed Time) where the bush warms, grass seeds ripen, berries sweeten and the landscape shifts into abundance. it's a season of gathering, preparing, and sharing food, and a reminder that the gifts from Country carry stories, nourishment and connection.Β  Our loose leaf tea blends reflect the rhythms of Country with bright, organic, and aromatic ingredients that awaken the senses, support digestion and ease the body through seasonal heat.

During Wurrumuk and Dhurung time (Nov-Dec):

  • Berries ripen, including Flax-lily, Apple-berry and Kangaroo Apple
  • Wattle seeds matures and is traditionally ground into flour
  • Insects, birds and reptiles are most active
  • Native grass seeds ripen, such as Kangaroo, Wallaby and Tussock grasses
  • Eucalypt flowers attract bees, lorikeets and honeyeaters

This period of abundance shapes our tea blends that celebrate spice, seed, berry, and warmth; naturally designed to slow the breath, settle the nervous system and reconnect you to place.

Carbon-conscious Christmas Delivery

Australia Post has extended operating hours nationwide and prioritises Express Post parcels to help gifts move smoothly during peak season. Across its network, delivery emissions are reduced through electric vans, electric bikes, walking routes, improved route efficiency and increased renewable electricity.

Because Christmas deliveries are highly urban and residential, more parcels are delivered per trip, reducing emissions per parcel while helping gifts arrive with care.

We take further responsibility for the remaining shipping impact of every order. Your purchase supports verified carbon-removal initiatives that do more than offset emissions. Your purchase actively removes an equivalent amount of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere using nature-based and technology-led solutions.Β 

This means your Christmas tea is delivered with consideration for both people and place.
