Time for a tea change

Herbal teas to gently purify, energise and calm your body.

Is the pace and pressure of your life making you feel tired, stressed and toxic? Need a gentle change that brings your body back into equilibrium? Highland Herbs Tasmania offers a range of exquisite herbal teas that address the problems of modern living.

Grown in the crisp, pure air of the magnificent Western Tiers of Tasmania, Highland Herbs are grown and processed organically by Greg Maulder and his wife, Doctor Libby Reeckman. Making their own tree change in the early 80's, Greg and Libby set up their 520 acre farm in the country behind Deloraine in Western Tasmania. At an altitude of 640 metres, the farm is graced with pristine spring water and surrounded on three sides by untouched rainforest.

Libby, a medical doctor who had been working in obstetrics, was interested in exploring alternative therapies while Greg has been involved in growing things all his life. The combination of interests led to Highland Herbs Tasmania, which is organically certified by the Biological Farmers of Australia (BFA).

A wide variety of herbs are grown using organic and bio-dynamic farming techniques. They are harvested and packed by hand, and dried naturally away from direct sunlight in controlled temperatures. "All this attention to detail is a hard slog, but it results in a vibrant end product," said Greg.

Highland Herbs products include the popular Body Cleanse Tea, a compilation of herbs designed to gently purify your body. Other favorites are Digesteze, Stresseze and Pregnancy Teas. Chamomile, Peppermint, Nettle and Raspberry Teas are also available.
