In Pursuit of Tea brings ethically sourced, single-origin teas and herbal infusions from Cornwall to curious drinkers.
Barbara Pierson has shaped the legendary @whiteflowerfarm nursery in Morris for 26 years, bringing deep expertise and genuine passion to one of Litchfield County’s most beloved institutions. Here, she shares her five favorite edibles from the farm’s kitchen garden. She uses the word “edibles” intentionally, since tomatoes and other food crops are technically fruits, not vegetables.

New studies have shown that birding, the act of observing and listening to birds, can reduce anxiety, stress, and depression by directing our attention outward.
