Born out of desire to rediscover the lost American resources of yaupon tea and under-served Texans, Cat Spring Tea sustainably harvests “Yaupon”, the only caffeinated plant native to America, while creating second chance employment opportunities. Although enjoyed for centuries by Native Americans and a powerful source of jitter free energy and antioxidants, the use of the tea plant has been forgotten. With harvesting, processing, and packaging all done by hand, the yaupon tea making process requires a large amount of skilled and unskilled labor. Cat Spring Tea creates second chance employment job positions, amplifying the message that, although overlooked, our people and our product have great value. Cat Spring Tea collaborates with Texas organizations that offer support for individuals fighting poverty, previous incarcerations, addictions, disability, and other personal obstacles.Need your Yaupon Tea Fix?

Cynthia H. Lyons opened the Victory Oasis Farm in March 2014 intending to produce food for the heart, mind, and body. With hopes to bring the most environmentally-friendly products, she can satisfy the food needs of locavores in Texas, or those who love locally-grown food. They take care of plants as nature would by doing practices like mulching every plant and giving plants rainwater. Aside from that, they handplant and handpick everything to perfection. The farm is also planting a whole 50-ft row of product which they give away to the poor and misfortunate people. Some of the plants they grow are cucumbers, tomatoes, squash, potatoes, lettuce, okra, kale, cabbage, onions, peas, and greens. She sells these naturally-grown hand-picked at Heart of Texas Farmers Market. "Everything was so fresh yummy!"
