SLOW FOOD OLYMPIA EVENT >>>
Hot tea has played an intricate part in our lives for generations. Teas have been intertwined with spiritual experiences. They've been used as tinctures of health and wellness. And for some they are simply a part of our daily routine.
Slow Food Greater Olympia has a mission to "advocate sustainability and bio-diversity... and promote the appreciation and consumption of seasonal and local foods and the support of those who produce them." They do this with educational events, potlucks, tastings, cooking demonstrations and more.
Sunday, Slow Food hosts a Taiwanese Oolong Tea event led by Dewey Meyer of the Northwest WuWo Tea Association. Wu translates to mean void or emptiness while wo means self or mine. This brand of tea ceremony is meant to separate material possession and status from the equation and encourage a sense of equality and community between drinkers.
Meyer having traveled all over the world studying tea, the process of growth and harvest and philosophy behind them, will be available to enlighten attendees to the history of tea, with a focus on Oolong.
Also hosting is Martha Rosemeyer from The Evergreen State College who specializes in agricultural ecology and food systems.
To accompany the tasting snacks like tea eggs and buns with red bean paste will be available.
Once you register for this event, the secret tea tasting location will be revealed.
To register you can contact hostess Dziuba at hdziuba@hotmail.com or call her at 503.312.9543. Registration fee is only $10 for members of the organization or $15 for non-members.
