Every Journey Begins with a Single Step

Hello, UR Happy Place family!

My recent visit to an Atlanta market show introduced me to some amazing tea companies and left me with so many inspiring ideas. Since then, I’ve been busy brainstorming and planning the next steps for UR Happy Place. Today, I’m thrilled to share that I’ve taken the first step forward by placing a sample tea order!

“Every journey begins with a single step.”
I’ll admit, I was a bit nervous about getting started, but I reminded myself that the biggest mistake is not starting at all. With that, I found the courage to embark on this new journey. This first order focuses on organic and non-GMO products, as I aim to explore teas that go beyond health benefits and carry values worth sharing with you.

One thing that impressed me about the tea company I’ve chosen is their commitment to sourcing ingredients from around the world and blending and producing their teas here in the USA. Knowing that I’m supporting Made in USA products that prioritize ethical and healthy choices brings me great joy. Additionally, as someone who runs a nail salon, I’ve curated teas that cater to niche markets, including detox teas for beauticians, soothing teas for salon clients, and teas for expectant mothers.

What is Non-GMO?

Non-GMO (Non-Genetically Modified Organism) refers to products made with ingredients that have not undergone genetic modification. GMO ingredients are often engineered to grow faster or resist pests, but Non-GMO products rely on natural, unaltered ingredients. Non-GMO certification assures consumers of safe and clean choices, aligning with the values of health and sustainability that UR Happy Place strives to uphold.
