International Tea Day

International Tea Day is celebrated on May 21 each year to recognize the cultural significance, economic importance, and global consumption of tea. Established by the United Nations in 2019, this day aims to raise awareness about the sustainable production and consumption of tea, highlighting the livelihoods of millions of tea workers and their communities. It also promotes fair trade and supports efforts to address challenges faced by the tea industry, such as climate change and worker rights. Celebrations often include tea tastings, educational events, and discussions on the impact of tea on society and the environment.
