ABOUT US

Origin

 Haizhen Pan, a Shanghai native and our company’s founder, made her first trip to a tea farm in 1997. The farm manager pointed to two large hills and told her, “Haizhen, you should lease those two hills... and produce exactly the tea that you want.”

She couldn’t afford that much land at the time, but she did know the type of tea that she wanted:  organic, sustainably priced, and delicious.  If she could not have the land, she would travel around and find the farmers who could produce these teas. Thus, Haizhen founded TWO HILLS TEA in the picturesque town of Nelson, BC, and became the first organic tea provider in North America. The friendly locals – health-oriented and craving organic products – happily embraced Haizhen’s vision. TWO HILLS TEA received is first organic certification in 2003, long before Canada Organic Regime came into effect.

In 2013, TWO HILLS TEA relocated to its present home in Richmond, BC. Haizhen has since retired, and our current owners Pedro and Brian are passionate tea hunters who still travel the world looking for the best organic tea.
