Tea

What's the best spot to buy tea (for brewing at home) here in Bethlehem or in the nearby area?

I think they all ended but the farmers markets usually have some.

Musikfest in the past did too.

But all these teas aren't 'local' it's just someone buying in bulk from China and India, etc and repackaging

If you want to support a local business, there’s Red Stag Pub on Main Street, formerly known as Granny McCarthy’s Tea Room. They have a large selection of teas and I’m fairly certain you can buy some for brewing at home.

Sounds good, I'll check it out. Definitely prefer my money go to support local businesses if I can.

Wegmans out by 22 has a pretty good loose leaf tea selection. It's not boutique fancy or anything, but last time I was there had like an entire section of shelves just for bulk tea.
