About Us

OUR STORY

One Love Tea began in 2010 with a simple idea: create delicious teas and herbal blends that bring together flavor, wellness, and a love for natural ingredients.

What started at local farmers markets in Southern California quickly became a family business. With my husband Bryon and our three kids along for the journey, weekends were spent setting up booths, serving tea, meeting customers, and growing One Love Tea one cup at a time.

Many years later, One Love Tea continues to create small-batch, hand-blended teas with the same care and passion that started it all.

A Family Business


One Love Tea has always been a family business. From farmers markets and street fairs to packing orders and helping customers, our kids grew up right alongside the business. What began as a small tea company became part of our family's story.

WHAT DOES “ONE LOVE” MEAN?

This is a question that comes up from time to time.  

One Love...  is to have unconditional love and respect for all living things,
whether it be human or animal, plant or insect, regardless of sex, race,
creed, or color.  

In a cup of tea, you can have many different ingredients harvested from
different regions of the world by men, women, and children from
different backgrounds, with different languages, and differing religions, with
the help of animals and insects.

 It all comes together in one cup of tea
to bring us joy, warmth, refreshment, and nourishment for the body, mind, and
soul.  

To put it simply, One Love is not only a statement but a
way of life.  

Meet the Founders

Hi, we are Bryon and Joanna Minton, founders of One Love Tea.

We started One Love Tea in 2010 with a love for tea, natural ingredients, and the belief that something as simple as a cup of tea can bring people together.

What began at local farmers markets grew into a family business. Over the years, we have created countless blends, met wonderful customers, and learned that some of the best products come from simply listening to what people are looking for.

Today, we still believe in the same things we did when we started—quality ingredients, great flavor, thoughtful blends, and making products with care.

Many years later, we are still creating, blending, and dreaming up what comes next.
