Co-Founders Krisi & Mike set up the company at the age of 23 after returning from Canada where they had been working as ski instructors and where the idea for Bird & Blend was born. From day one they put sustainability high on their priority list and this has not changed. We keep people & the planet at the forefront of our decision making and Krisi & Mike went from packing tea in their back bedroom to having 180+ staff, 18 stores (and counting!) across the UK and a thriving international online store. Bird & Blend is leading the way in tea innovation in the UK!
We are actively looking to grow the wholesale and B2B arm of Bird & Blend and we're open to new opportunities to partner and collaborate. Please get in touch with us!
30 years ago in Salisbury, Connecticut, proprietor of the historic White Hart Inn, John Harney, developed a passion for fine teas. John was introduced to the world of tea by Stanley Mason, who turned to creating his own craft tea blends after years in the corporate world of tea. Over time, Mason taught John both the art and business of the craft.
Starting production out of his basement in 1983, John began his own journey in mastering the craft of tea blending. Serving his distinctive blends with inn guests, he soon found they were coming back for more. Never did John Harney imagine that his small home-run business in Salisbury, Connecticut would turn into a global operation, now headquartered in Millerton, New York filling 90,000 square feet of warehouse space, and employing over 155 people, making it one of the largest employers in the Hudson Valley. The company, which sources, blends, and packages their own product from start to finish, has grown from their original six teas, to more than three hundred. Their story truly captures the essence of American Business Ingenuity.
Harney & Sons was founded on a commitment to deliver customers the finest quality tea possible. This promise, made 30 years ago, serves as the company's guiding principle. Today, Harney & Sons Tea remains family owned and managed, with three generations of Harney's preserving John's tradition of fine tea and traveling the world in search of the finest ingredients.
