 Give yourself over to the flow of generosity, love and tea that is ...

The Kettle Tea House
** Update WE REACHED OUR TARGET YAY !! Thank you , Any funds over will pay for much needed tea supplies! *
This is a wondrous space that materialises at festivals around Australia. Its next stop is Burning Seed 2015.
A place of sanctuary and peace in the rush of the paddock, Magical, & opulent, The Kettle gifts entertainment,
workshops, retro vibes, an apothecary of tea, parties, art and massage.
Last year, the Kettle gifted over 2000 litres of tea to the Burners who delved into its extravagant delights.
Just to make it even more fun, now we have handle and spout that both light up and make puffing steam.



TEA MAGIC HEAVEN

This year we will be adding a 'Herbal Apothecary' range to our already extensive variety of over 100 loose leaf teas!
Excitingly, Meg has come on board as our resident Kettle Herbalist so we'll be adding a veritable plethora of herbals to sooth your party hangovers, wake you up, put you to sleep again, cure your bush sniffles and basically bring you gently back to earth from your dazed and confused moments.
Let’s travel the world together from herbal to black and back again. From the traditional Aboriginal Jilungin tea to the terribly British Earl Grey, come on down and taste the best damn teas the Kettle has to offer!
 
The Temple’s near where Alice fell.
To Wonderland where secrets dwell.
Venture down and lose some time.
White gloves on, the china’s fine.
Extravagant opulent, exquisite game,
Bring your friends to the fringe of sane.
Beware the cake, beware the tea,
for size can change reality
'The timeless tea party'


How The Funds Will Be Used

** Update WE REACHED OUR TARGET YAY !!  Thank you , Any funds over will pay for much needed tea supplies! **
-This year we have a challenge ahead of us. We find ourselves without the funds for the truck to get to seed.
Thanks to an unplanned, mammoth house move & a hospital operation, we had almost decided not to go.
Many people said it  just wouldn't be the same without us at Burning Seed so we're hoping that with our burner families help we will be able to get the kettle Teahouse back on the road  and steaming up the paddock for another year. 
We can cover most of expenses but to get there we need a large truck & we need fuel and a massive 1000 litre water container. Here's the challenge. We now have only 17 days to raise $3,100
Here's the simple breakdown...

Truck Hire & Fuel: $2800
Water Storage Container: $300

If we manage to exceed our target, then we'll use the additional money to cover more fabulous teas, native herbs & flowers for the "Apothecary" & nom-nommy cakes that will make your experience in the Kettle even more divine.


* Note we will gladly take donations of home grown herbs, Cakes cookies, and interesting teas & blends. Contact us at [email protected]
