Hey there. I'm Lindsey, founder of Route 636 Tea Co. and lifelong environmentalist. I help conscious tea drinkers struggling with greenwashing and disconnected rituals by offering transparently sourced, fairly traded, small-batch teas so they can sip with confidence, clarity, and connection.

Like many of you, I used to buy tea that felt good on the outside—organic labels, pretty packaging—but something about it never quite sat right. I’d turn over the box and still have no idea where the tea came from or how it was made. As someone who cares deeply about the planet and believes in thoughtful living, I didn’t want to start or end my day with that kind of disconnect.

That’s why I created Route 636—to offer an alternative to mass-produced tea and the empty marketing that surrounds it. I believe our rituals should reflect our values. That sustainability should be honest and human. And that tea should be a bridge: between people, cultures, land, and self. Every tea I source for you is rooted in this mission—to help you sip with intention, integrity, and care.
