Fair Hills Farm Launches USDA-Certified Organic Black Tea Line Sweetened with Farm-Grown Apple Juice

PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Jessica Nash for Fair Hills Farm Organics

PASO ROBLES COUNTY, CA (MAY 2025) — Fair Hills Farm Organics, an 88-acre certified organic orchard on California’s Central Coast, has announced the launch of its Organic Black Tea line, a ready-to-drink collection of five teas naturally sweetened with cold-pressed apple juice made from the farm’s own fruit.

The new line includes five blends: Original Black Tea, Black Tea & Chamomile, Black Tea & Mint, Black Tea & Cinnamon, and Black Tea & Ginger. Each is crafted without added sugars or artificial ingredients, offering a gently sweet, fruit-forward profile that highlights the integrity of its ingredients.

Fair Hills’ cold-pressed apple juice is made from apples grown on-site, including fruit that doesn’t enter the retail stream due to cosmetic imperfections. The tea is processed, bottled, and packaged locally, aligning with the farm’s commitment to sustainability.

“We wanted to create something truly different — something farm-forward, and rooted in the land.” says Caitlyn Pierini, Farmer and Grower at Fair Hills Farm Organics. “This product reflects our values and our desire to provide nourishing, high-quality options to both our community and the broader market.” says Russel Steingold, Founder & CEO.

The farm distributes a portion of its highest-quality fruit to local schools, restaurants, and independent grocers on the Central Coast. At the same time, the apples from the Orchard are used to make unfiltered certified organic apple juice, now a key ingredient in the tea line.

Key Highlights of the Product:
– Certified Organic and Non-GMO
– Naturally Sweetened with 100% Organic cold-pressed Apple Juice
– Grown & Crafted on a Certified Organic Farm in California (USDA)
– No added sugar or artificial ingredients
– First-of-its-kind product in the ready-to-drink tea category

AVAILABILITY: The Organic Black Tea line will be available at select retailers throughout the Central Coast beginning May 15th, 2025.
