Win this teapot


December 15th is International Tea Day and is celebrated in many tea growing regions around the world. It began in India in 2005 to raise awareness of the plight of tea pickers’ working conditions and the challenge small scale tea growers face against corporate producers of international brands. Millions of workers are affected by the forces of the global economy and the dynamics of an ever-expanding tea industry.
To honour the tea workers across the globe, I give away one of my teapots every December 15th. In order to sign up for the draw I simply ask that you enjoy a cup of organically grown, fairly traded tea and think of all the hardworking tea pickers. Send me a line with your contact info or like my facebook page. The draw takes place at the end of the day Thursday. Good luck to all…

Teapot give-away

I wanted to thank all of you who have sent me your tea stories and entered your names to win one of my handbuilt teapots. The draw happens December 15th at my studio. We will be serving a variety of fairly traded teas and goodies to go along. If you are in our neighbourhood come on by to help us celebrate International Tea Day. If you are unable to come you can still enter the draw by sending me an e-mail with a personal tea story. Enjoy a fairly traded cup of tea and think fondly of all the tea workers that enable our tea pleasures.

win a teapot

On December 15th I will draw for my annual teapot give-away. International Tea Day was established on December 15th five years ago in order to raise awareness of the conditions of tea workers across the globe. As a serious tea fanatic and co-creator of teafarm, I feel strongly about helping to better the lives of the workers that make it possible for me to enjoy my daily tea.
You can enter the draw by sharing your favourite tea story and by making your daily tea a fairly traded experience. Send me a note through my website www.margitnellemann.com to enter the draw. The teapot of this year’s draw is a surprise but I promise it will be a nice one.

a special teapot

After a very busy teapot season, I am now working on a number of new creations. The plan is to have them ready for Circle Craft in Vancouver in mid November. Keeping in mind different tastes and needs, there will be short pots and tall pots, round pots and square pots. If you are considering treating yourself to an original handbuilt teapot this year, please let me know before early November and I will still be able to accommodate your special wishes. Give me a call or send me a line and let me know what type of teapot suits your fancy.
