Would you like to meet some
of the farmers, tea pickers
and others who work daily to
create your favourite Tetley
cuppa? Visit www.facebook.
com/TetleysFarmersfirsthand.
It’s a great opportunity to
discover the vast and diverse
range of people and places
that come together to make
the famous blend. You’ll also
discover how Tetley’s work
with the Rainforest Alliance is
helping to ensure a better life
for farmers, better tea for you
and a better environment for
all of us. Tetley has committed
to purchasing all of the tea for
its branded teabag and loose
tea products from Rainforest
Alliance Certified farms.
All farms that are Rainforest
Alliance Certified have met
the environmental, social,
and economic standards of
the Sustainable Agriculture
Network (SAN). The SAN
standards cover ecosystem
conservation, worker rights
and safety, wildlife protection,
water and soil conservation,
agrochemical reduction, decent
housing, and legal wages and
contracts for workers.
