Green Pergola began selling loose teas and herbs in 2004.  When we met the owner of Tea for Two and More at the Nashville flea market, a friendship began.  Later when the opportunity presented itself to rent retail space, Tea for Two and More and Green Pergola rented the storefront inside the One2Yoga building in Donelson, TN.

At this time, Green Pergola dropped teas and herbs from their line of products and focused completely on aromatherapy products and soaps, making room for Tea for Two to run the tea side of the storefront.  For three years, the two companies worked side by side, serving loose tea and selling soaps and essential oils.

In August 2009, Tea for Two and More made the decision to focus completely on their internet business, as well as the wonderful idea of having a traveling tea bar – setting up a tea service at various locations on demand.  In order to achieve this goal, the tea company gave up the rented storefront.

When this occurred, Green Pergola returned to the business of selling loose teas and herbs.  Cups of tea are served every day in our Nashville tea bar.  Teas range from: black tea, oolong tea, green tea, herbal blended teas, rooibos tea, yerba mate and herbs.  Customers can walk in the store and choose from any of the available teas or choose to have several types blended together to create the perfect cup, steeped to order.  In addition to the teas is Bonjo Java coffee and Green Pergola house blend coffee. 

The remodeling has also brought an added feature to our Nashville tea bar — free wifi.  Free internet access is exactly what the store needed, allowing the serious tea and coffee drinker to relax with their favorite cup right beside their laptop.

At present, the tea bar seats 12 people inside and another 10 outside, weather permitting.  There are future plans to add more seating and we encourage our tea drinkers to get to know each other and share table space whenever possible.  You never know when you’re about to share a cup of tea with a brand new friend you were destined to meet.
