Shelby's Tea House

When anthropology meets dad-jokes

Session on August 10, 2025 with Emily & Bear

Hey friends! I am so happy to have met you!

Sharing tea is my passion, and when I get to do it with locals, it warms my heart even more! The tea ceremony isn't the same without my guests, so thank you for bringing your positive energy to my house today.

I look forward to running into you again!
