As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability and the environment, we’re thrilled to announce a special new initiative to help you give back to the planet: Grow Your Own Carob Tree!
To show our appreciation for your continued support, we’re gifting you a packet of carob seeds with every online order!
We dedicate a lot of time and care every year to process by hand the Maltese carob pods for our unique Tgħanniqa tea blends which has now grown to: Tgħanniqa Chai and also Tgħanniqa tan-Naħla which we exclusively blend for Busy Bee.
Every carob pod is cleaned, deseeded and chopped ready for our roasting and blending process. All done by hand. We have saved all the seeds we collected from this Summer’s harvest and we will distribute them to all our Tettiera customers over this Christmas Season.
Why Carob Trees?
Carob trees are not only visually stunning, but they also play a vital role in preserving and enriching the Maltese environment. Their deep roots help prevent soil erosion, provide food for wildlife, and even promote biodiversity.
With their low water requirements, carob trees are perfectly suited to Malta’s climate and are a symbol of sustainability.
By growing your own carob tree, you’re helping us move one step closer to a greener Malta, and you’ll be contributing to a sustainable future for generations to come.
What’s Included?
With every packet of carob seeds, you’ll also find simple, easy-to-follow instructions to help you germinate and plant your tree. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just starting out, you’ll find it easy to nurture your new green companion.
