Welcome to Catawba Yaupon, where each cup of tea carries the legacy of our ancestors. Our journey with Yaupon began with a simple question from my daughter: "Have you ever heard of Yaupon?" Little did we know, that curiosity would ignite a journey of rediscovery, and deeper connection with the rich heritage of our people. As Catawba women, we are deeply honored to revive a tradition that once thrived in the hearts of our ancestors. Yaupon tea, rooted in the Catawba language, symbolizes our profound connection to the land, our heritage, and our community. More than just a beverage, Yaupon is a bridge to our past, a gift we are proud to share with the world. Each sip of Yaupon offers not only warmth and comfort but also a deep sense of belonging and connection. It serves as a powerful reminder of the sacred traditions that unite us and the enduring strength and resilience of our people. Join us in honoring our legacy and reviving a cherished tradition nearly lost to erasure. Together, let’s create shared moments, exploring the wisdom of our ancestors and embracing the timeless magic of Yaupon tea.
