✨ “Plants. Place. Purpose.”
That’s the heartbeat of Appalachian Teas & Botanicals, where every herbal blend tells the story of the land it came from. For founder Lori Briscoe, this work isn’t just business, it’s a love letter to Appalachia, a region long shaped by extraction industries. But now? A new chapter is being written—one of connection, sustainability, and healing.
🌱 Lori’s passion lies in reconnecting people to the magic and medicine of place. Each tea and botanical good is “made of place,” thoughtfully crafted from locally sourced ingredients and wild harvests, then gently blended with global botanicals to create an experience that is both rooted and expansive.
🌟 Proudest Moments:
Lori has proudly represented the region at events like the Virginia Highlands Festival’s Table Talk and the Women of Impact gathering at Virginia Tech bringing Appalachian wellness into the spotlight with grace and grit.
🍵 How She Serves:
With every cup poured, Lori invites her customers to taste the land—to savor teas and herbs that surprise, delight, and deepen their understanding of what Appalachian wellness can truly mean.
💡 Herbal Wisdom for Dreamers:
“Focus and get clear about your mission.” Whether you’re knee-deep in lavender or knee-deep in daydreams, that clarity is your compass.
💚 Industry Truth Bomb:
