Our Story

Our “Kissan” journey started over a decade ago; our then six-year-old son talked us into getting a chicken coop. This led to vegetable gardens, herbs, and edible flowers.

Who doesn’t like hot sauce with their eggs? The Hot Mama was born. A recipe from a dear friend Donna, from Guyana. After years of making it for us, she got tired of making it and taught us how to make it. Another dear friend from Vietnam, Lina, taught us how to make a very flavorful Chili Oil. Most of our ingredients for our sauces are sourced locally or from our gardens.

The teas are homage to my east Indian heritage. We use herbal remedies to cure everything from upset stomachs, toothaches to uplifting moods. A hobby turned into a small venture. Today, we still grow every item that goes into our teas in our organic garden. We process it by hand, selecting only the best quality of herbs and edible flowers. Something that started as a family hobby …..we no longer have the chickens. After the heartbreak of several flocks, the heartbreak of loosing them was too great.
