About Very Craftea

THE BEGINNING The idea of Very Craftea was thought up one evening with my good friend Natalie, a cup of tea, some cake and trying to answer the thought provoking questions, like 'why aren't there trousers for dogs?' After hours trying to work if dogs did wear trousers, how would they wear them, and drinking many cups of tea, this really was perfect. Good company and tea. What would make it even better would be a craft kit to go along with it. Natalie then said "Oh, we're Very Craftea - you know, like craft and tea" and that's how Very Craftea came into existence The premise was simple, sell tea and craft kits! But loads of companies sell craft kits, and even more sell tea so other than the amazing business name, I needed to be different I only sell consciously sourced loose leaf tea. Whats that mean? Well, I only work with tea suppliers who are either part of the Ethical Tea Partnership (who's mission is to create a fairer, better, sustainable tea industry for workers, farmers and the environment) or Social Enterprises (who give 50% of their profits back to tea farming regions) I spent a long time trying to find modern and unique kits which, more importantly, contained everything that was needed to finish it (how many times have you bought a kit, only to realise you need to buy loads of other stuff to finish it?) but couldn't really find them, so went about creating them!Read their story
