vLocally Foraged Tea Gift Set with Jason Michael Thomas | Urban Awareness Gardens Indianapolis
$ 54.00
Visit product page →Walking through the wild lands with Hugo, his trusted furry sidekick, Jason Michael Thomas of Urban Awareness Gardens forages delicious, wild crafted teas for your health and pleasure.
Imagine settling in your favorite cozy spot with a handmade mug filled with your new favorite caffeine-free herbal tea while you let the stresses of the day drift away.
Each tea jar is handmade by Rebecca Graves and filled with delicious foraged tea from Jason Michael Thomas. Choose from white mulberry, goldenrod or nettle. Each tea jar holds enough loose tea for 4-6 pots of tea. If you don't have a tea pot with a strainer and would like unbleached paper tea bags to fill yourself, drop a note when you check out and we will add a few to your package.
Because the tea is foraged and not farmed, there is a limited supply available.
Are you wondering what these teas taste like? We've got you covered:
- Goldenrod Tea - wait to steep when the water has cooled from boiling about 3-5 minutes for a smoother flavour. Goldenrod Tea is a gorgeous soft golden green color and tastes herbal with a hint of floral. It's light and fresh on its own or wonderful with a wee bit of honey or citrus.
- Nettle Tea - this lovely green leafy tea tastes a bit nutty like a pan roasted green tea. We love the Nettle Tea alone, without honey, but it would also be delicious with honey or a hint of vanilla.
- White Mulberry Tea - oven roasted to bring out the flavor, the White Mulberry Tea is similar to the flavour of an oolong tea. It is also delightful steeped on its own or add a touch of honey to sweeten it slightly.
The gift set includes a handmade mug and a recyclable paper container filled with Jason's delicious tea.
Steeping instructions and more information about the wellness benefits of your tea will be included with shipping.

Visit product page →The mug you reach for every morning, our Carriage House Everyday Mug is just the right size and comfy to hold.
When designing each piece of pottery, I pay attention to the details that make it truly function in a way that you can't imagine living without it. The Carriage House Everyday Mug holds approximately 12 ounces of your favorite beverage. The dimple in the side of the mug, beneath the handle, gives your knuckles a little extra room when your coffee or tea is piping hot. If you prefer to snuggle your mug with your hand wrapped around it, the dimple is a cozy spot for a steady grip. The handles are my unique pinched design formed by my own fingers so they'll fit yours comfortably and ergonomically.
Do you need some coffee to enjoy with your new cup? You can now purchase my favorite coffee from Tinker Coffee right here!
The mugs are microwave and dishwasher safe, though, I do recommend hand washing since things bang around quite a bit in the dishwasher. If you choose to use the dishwasher anyway, your pottery will last much longer if you're careful to place it where it won't vibrate or bang against other dishes.
The mugs are made using clay made by Kentucky Mudworks (a woman owned clay company) in Louisville, Kentucky. We throw each mug on the potter's wheel and my hands form the indentations in the handle that make it so comfy to hold so each one is a unique work of art that you'll enjoy using every day.
The Turquoise glaze is a serendipitous surprise every time we pull a new mug out of the kiln. You won't be receiving the exact mug in this photo, but you will get one just like it that has its own little glaze personality. That's the beauty of handmade pottery and this special glaze. Every single one is unique.
Each piece of pottery is carefully wrapped and packed to ensure safe delivery.

Visit product page →After years of throwing all my pots on a wheel because I didn’t have the space for slab work and hand building I’m starting to rediscover the joy of hand building and the rustic elements it brings to functional ware.
The Wobble Bowls are making a fresh appearance on the website again. They small bowls are just the right size for all sorts of dishes from ice cream to pasta, salad and soup or plating beautiful food like Jason Michael Thomas and the larger bowl is perfect for serving 2-6 people a main dish or side dish. It’s also lovely as a centerpiece filled with fruit.
If your food is humble or glorious it will feel special. One of my favorite things about slow living and daily rituals is that even the mundane becomes elevated when you take the time to enjoy the entire experience.
Don’t forget, we have $5 flat rate shipping on all orders shipped in the continental United States!The wobble bowls measure approximately 6” diameter and 2” high. The Wobble Serving Bowl measures approximately 11” diameter and 3.5” high. Each one is completely unique and shows the marks of the maker’s hands, delightful glaze variations and is an individual work of art.

Visit product page →Take your pick. If you’re an espresso drinker you’ll love this little handmade stoneware cup designed with the great team over at Tinker Coffee to be just the right size and shape for a double shot of your favorite roast. It’s Tinker Coffee, right? Everyone’s favorite small batch roasted coffee is Tinker. Isn’t it? WHAT!? You’ve never had Tinker Coffee? We can remedy that! Hop over to Tinker Coffee and order a bag. You can thank me later. In the meantime...
We’ve discovered that this espresso cup also makes a fantastic succulent planter so if you were thinking you’d only order one for your coffee, you might want to rethink that decision and get one for your plant, too.
Do you need some coffee to enjoy with your new cup? You can now purchase my favorite coffee from Tinker Coffee right here!
The signature Brown Bear clay from Kentucky Mudworks (another female owned business just a couple hours from the studio in Louisville, Kentucky) adds a textural delight to your espresso experience. The silky smooth glaze is a lovely juxtaposition to the velvety feel of the exposed raw clay.
As always, Gravesco Pottery is microwave and dishwasher safe though we always recommend that you hand wash for longevity just because in the dishwasher that jet stream of water can make things bang together and chip. That said, there are several beloved pieces of pottery that I’ve owned for a decade or more that made it through regular dishwashing with no problem because I was careful to place it where it couldn’t bang around against something else.
Each cup is individually thrown on the wheel and glazed by hand so it is normal to expect variations from cup to cup. The serendipity of the process is what we love so much about handmade pottery.
Don’t forget, we offer $5 flat rate shipping on your entire order in the continental United States.
