Some of you have already seen this, but I wanted to share on this page this exciting news! I will absolutely still be operating in my Little Tea Peddler business for all you wonderful shops who stock my tea and I’ll still be at markets - the major shift will be that I’ll be less active on this page. I would though, be so honoured if you checked out the transition posts on and give me a follow over there!

Posted • We have some news to share with you, our dear, valued and loyal customers. We have sold our business, after deep consideration and contemplation. It has been a bittersweet time, as our 7 years at Alcove has been nothing short of amazing. From inception, creating the brand and opening the shop, to selling so many fabulous local and hand crafted goods, we are proud of what we have become! It has been such a pleasure to be a part of this Downtown Qualicum Beach community. We're excited to see the shop continue in the hands of the new owner, Meghan Robertson. I can assure you that she will continue the same great legacy of Alcove, and as an artist herself, I know she values the local community, makers, artists and handcrafted, ethically made goods.

ps. Check out our next post to learn more about Meghan, the new owner!

Thank you so much to all who came out to yesterday for their Fall Harvest Market! I never really know what to expect for markets this time of year but the desire people have to support small and support local was hugely evident.

Thank you to for a brilliant venue and market hosting, and to all my fellow vendors who make events like this just so much fun

When deciding if I want to pursue something or not, I generally go by the philosophy of if I’d regret not taking the opportunity more than I’d regret the thing if it didn’t end up working out.

It’s scary to take risks and step from what you know works, but I try to avoid the “what ifs” in life when I feel drawn in a direction.

There are some upcoming changes to this Little Tea Peddler that will mean my social media presence will be less consistent. I will though be at a number of holiday markets, including one tomorrow ! Check out thar post for more information!

I’ll share the news shortly but in the meantime, I’m always available through DMs and emails 🫖

More info to come on this shortly ❤️

Shanghai Jasmine Lychee

Green tea is such a great health support for so many things. It’s great for skin, reducing high blood pressure, digestion, metabolism, brain function, and teeth!

Also when it’s infused with Jasmine and lychee, it’s freaking delicious

I’ll be drinking this on repeat today to help digest my thanksgiving dinner from yesterday 😂

Finding pieces of our lives to be grateful for doesn’t mean that our experiences of struggle aren’t also valid. It’s more like finding those gold nuggets, no matter how small, can be like little life preservers

Holiday weekends aren’t always just rainbows and unicorns. They can often bring with them a whole host of emotional extremes so my hope for you this weekend, for those of you who have Thanksgiving like we do in Canada here, is that you are able to find those pieces you are grateful for ❤️

Happy Thanksgiving ❤️

Go check out .maverick and Erin’s shop to snag one of these gems

Maybe it’s because I’m just a massive tea nerd, but I find something just so dang beautiful about rehydrated tea leaves, all freshly unfurled after a gentle stretch out from that hot water

Especially these leaves of my Blueberry White tea!

Light, fruity, and with all the health benefits of green tea this blend is perfection to give you that late morning or early afternoon boost to help you slay your day

Snag some from my online shop today!

Posted • I believe Truth and Reconciliation extends beyond symbolic gestures. It requires non-Indigenous individuals to embrace discomfort and commit to lasting change, addressing the consequences of destructive government policies. True reconciliation involves actions like wealth redistribution, acknowlement, reciprocity and ongoing conversations with Indigenous people.

Indigenous teachings, stories, and our bond with the land hold the key to healing the Earth. Our planet's well-being is intertwined with the return of Indigenous wisdom, as we address the devastating effects of disconnection.

As Indigenous people, we carry the weight of generational trauma, which directly shapes our lives and opportunities. My hope is that we can continue to craft art that not only amplifies Indigenous representation but also ignites a flame of hope for the future.

The pretty much non-stop rain this week has been a welcome thing given the months of terrible forest fire season we’ve had in my part of the world

Although I love summer, there is much to be grateful for in this weather change September brings as we ease into October

Vanilla Cream

Well, it’s still rainy out but my fire starting abilities are improving 🥳😅 I’m still feeling the vibes of a cuppa this creamy delight in a gorgeous mug by one of my favs .clay

Give Vanilla Cream a go! It’s a black tea blend that feels like a pair of cozy socks in front of a warm fire…that I will hopefully successfully get going soon 😅
