Welcome to Camellia Forest Tea Gardens

At Camellia Forest, we have been selling tea plants for more than 40 years, supporting growers who want to learn how to produce their own tea. We also make our own home-grown, hand-harvested teas and enjoy sharing what we know and what we grow with gardeners and tea lovers.

Our Tea Gardens at Camellia Forest in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, are a resource for learning about growing and processing tea - a place for people to experience tea through hands-on workshops, tea tastings, and tours. Here we also grow and evaluate diverse varieties of tea from around the world, including selections sold at Camellia Forest Nursery.

Did you know the Chinese word for Camellia (Cha Hua) means Tea Flower? Camellia sinensis  is the plant used to make all the different types of tea - from black to green, and everything in between!
