Committed teas and infusions: a range that makes sense

Created in 2013, the "Les Engagés" range of teas and infusions enables Les Jardins de Gaïa to support numerous projects in favor of biodiversity and those who promote it.

This approach, which reconciles ecology and economics, echoes the values we defend and strengthens the ties we have with the partner associations we feel close to.

Committed teas and committed infusions: a simple principle that's sure to please!

With this range, we invite you to join us in taking concrete action: with the purchase of each tea or infusion, you support an association committed to the defense and protection of nature.

For each tube or bag purchased, Les Jardins de Gaïa donate 1€ and 50cts respectively to the partner association. Thanks to this range, €191,916 has already been donated between 2014 and 2022 to the associations we support.

For the "homemade" recipes of these teas and infusions, we always favor original and daring combinations of plants, spices, flowers and aromas, as a nod to the specificities of each association.

Treat yourself while giving a helping hand to the concrete projects of men and women working for biodiversity and a better world!
