Quaker Calm Tea

Every year a selection of the seasons’ most delicious herbs, all locally grown and dried, are blended for this mellow and flavourful tea. We were considering discontining producing Quaker Calm Tea in 2026. However, after an out cry of dismay from loyal customers, and thanks to the commitment of added helpers to grow and dry the ingredients we are pleased to announce that we will be continuing to produce Quaker Calm Tea in 2026.

The 2026 blend should be available in the late summer.

ingredients include: Apple and Mojito Mint, Spearmint, Lemon Balm, Peppermint, Calendula and Cornflower Blossoms, Chamomile Blossoms, Raspberry Leaves, Blackberry Leaves, Rose Petals, Sweet Cicely, Mullein, and Clover Blossoms.

Stay tuned for dates for our Urn and Wreath Making Workshop in the fall!

With your help we look forward to supporting various service projects in 2026. As a result of our 2025 fundraising, including fundraising by the Youth in our Meeting, we were able to support:

  • The Nameless, St. Thomas
  • Inn out of the Cold, St. Thomas
  • Canadian Friends Service Committee
  • Movie Nights at the Meetinghouse for Documentary Films for the Public
  • Animal Shelter in St. Thomas
  • Elgin St. Thomas Food Bank
  • Sparta Community Society for Skatepark
  • Food Project Supporting Oxford County
  • Rainbow Connections Hub, St. Thomas

We also work with the YWCA and other local service providers, to support youth aged 16 to 24 living  independently. 

Our wish is to provide these youth with some basic supports, coupled with an awareness that they are a  part of a community that wants them to survive and thrive. Our main initiative is providing heart-felt  and homemade holiday gifts. 

“Deep within us all there is an amazing sanctuary of the soul, a holy place, a Divine Center, a speaking Voice, to which we may  continuously return. Eternity is at our hearts, pressing upon our time-torn lives, warming us with intimations of an astounding destiny, calling us home to Itself“ A Testament of Devotion, a Quaker classic by Thomas R. Kelly (1893 – 1941)
