A Different Kind of Thanksgiving: What We’re Thankful For This Year
This Thanksgiving, we’re giving thanks with full hearts and open eyes.
We’re honoring Indigenous communities and the land we stand on, celebrating the markets and makers who keep us going, and holding tight to the joy and community care that carried us through a chaotic year. From our farmers and shared kitchen crew to the wild little online family that showed up for us on Threads (hello, 100 Juneteenth orders), we’re grateful for every person who helped this queer, Black-owned, woman-owned tea company keep building something beautiful in a messy world.
This year—and every year—we choose community, truth, and hope.
5 Ways to Show Up for Trans Awareness Week
This Trans Awareness Week, we’re honoring the beauty, resilience, and strength of the trans community — and reflecting on how we can all do better to create a world where everyone can live authentically. 🌈 Discover 5 meaningful ways to show up, celebrate trans joy, and take action that lasts beyond the week — in partnership with @peppermint247 and @transequalitynow.
Collaboration Is How We Steep Change
Tea tastes better when we make it together. At Moody Teas, collaboration is how we steep real change—keeping quality tea accessible, celebrating LGBTQ+ joy, and putting people over profit. That’s why we’re partnering with the incomparable Miss Peppermint. We’re saving the product details for launch day (Nov 1), but here’s the heart of it: this collab amplifies queer artistry and gives back, with a portion of proceeds supporting trans rights organizations. If you believe tea should warm more than hands—and build community while it does—you’re in the right place. Subscribe for early access as we count down.
