Finding ways to be environmentally conscious and make a difference can be overwhelming. A good place to start is to try to buy organic products when you can. Keicha Matcha offers USDA Certified Organic Matcha and we are proud of what this means. Not only are we providing the best tasting matcha on the market, but when you buy our bulk matcha, you are making a difference & caring for our planet. Drink with confidence. How good does that taste?!

It’s not only what you put in your body that matters, but also a movement to get behind. With the very serious threats our environment is facing, it is incredibly important to purchase environmentally friendly products when you can. As explained in our last blog post ‘Certified Organic Matcha: Having Your Tea and Drinking It Too, “Research shows that organic practices can improve water quality, conserve energy, increase biodiversity, reduce pollution, and contribute to soil health.” In the past few years, becoming environmentally conscious has grown to be a pivotal movement in this generation. Making daily choices with our planet in mind is something quite admirable. We are proud to be produce Certified Organic Matcha.
