Westholme Tea Company is an 18-year-old organic tea operation on Vancouver Island's Cowichan Peninsula, operating a teashop inside a converted barn alongside a working tea garden with several hundred tea plants — one of Canada's very few commercial tea-growing operations. The shop carries over 150 organic loose-leaf teas, hand-blended tisanes, handbuilt ceramic teaware, and limited-harvest teas grown on the property itself. At least one visiting cyclist reported being greeted with a complimentary tea sample, making this an unusually characterful rest stop on the Vancouver Crossing Loop.
