Good Earth Tea has featured inspirational quotes on their tea tags for years. But from January 10 – February 21, 2011, they invited tea drinkers to submit an original quote via email, Facebook or Twitter for the chance to have their words – along with their name, blog or Twitter handle -and the essence of the Good Earth Tea brand.” After careful consideration, 25 quotes made the final cut.
