In Part 1 of this video I am starting, (from scratch) a new Colonial Herb and Bulb Garden. In the second part of this video, we will trace the History of tea in Colonial America, set a beautiful Early American Tea table and test out 3 of the teas that were dumped in Boston Harbor in 1773 during the Boston Tea party.
A correction: John Adams and Samuel Adams were cousins, not brothers.
I have linked some of the teas and artwork here:
"Solstice Tea Traders; "Boston tea Party Sampler" www.amazon.com
Oliver Pluff historic tea: www.oliverpluff.com
"America!" Limited edition art Print: www.jerilander...
The Teacups and Saucers are made by Johnson Brothers of England, " Colonial Overhang"
The books can be purchased on Amazon as used books, I see many available:
"Herbs" by Emelie Tolley and "The Gardens of Colonial Williamsburg"
