Welcome to Buttercup Botanicals!
My name is Megumi, and I am a place-based herbalist and tea artisan from Portland, Oregon. Oregon's diverse landscapes have fostered a deep connection to nature, nurturing my love for plants and their remarkable healing properties that help tend to both body and spirit.
Growing up surrounded by the rich traditions of Japanese tea culture, from tea ceremonies to the simplicity of a cup of Sencha in the morning with my grandmother, I developed a deep respect for the art of tea making. Each sip connects me to my roots, evoking cherished memories of family gatherings and heartfelt conversations.
With Buttercup Botanicals, I aim to share the beauty and tranquility of tea culture, offering carefully curated blends that celebrate the flavors and traditions passed down through generations. Thank you for joining me on this journey!

Better Living Through Herbs
At Buttercup Botanicals, my mission is to craft blends that nourish the body, uplift the spirit, and celebrate the ever-changing rhythms of life. In the whirlwind of everyday adventures, I believe that embracing self-ceremony is not just a gift but a joyful necessity. A simple way we can do this is by stealing away to savor a warm cup of tea, taking intentional moments to pause, breathe, and let the world fade into the background. These rituals create a space to reconnect with ourselves and provide herbal support that nourishes our specific needs—whether it’s invigorating energy for busy days, soothing calm in moments of stress, or a sprinkle of wellness throughout life’s beautiful transitions. Through these acts of self-care, I hope to inspire you to cultivate a deeper connection to nature and invite moments of reflection, encouraging everyone to delight in the warmth and comfort that each magical cup brings.

The Buttercup Difference...

Quality
I believe that the foundation of an exceptional cup of tea lies in the quality of its ingredients. That’s why prioritizing the sourcing of high-quality, sustainably harvested herbs that not only enhance the flavor of our blends but also honor the earth. I work closely with local growers and ethical suppliers who share the commitment to sustainable practices, ensuring that our herbs are cultivated with care for the environment and the communities that produce them. By choosing organic and responsibly sourced ingredients, we not only support biodiversity but also create teas that are rich in flavor and beneficial for your well-being. Each cup becomes a celebration of nature’s bounty, allowing you to sip with the knowledge that you’re nurturing both yourself and the planet.

Community Engagement
At Buttercup Botanicals, community engagement is at the core of my mission to promote sustainable, organic herbs in my tea blends. I believe in fostering strong relationships with local farmers and suppliers who share my commitment to ethical and environmentally friendly practices. By sourcing organic herbs, I not only support sustainable agriculture but also contribute to the health of our community and ecosystem. I actively participate in local events, workshops, and markets, inviting fellow tea enthusiasts to come together and learn about the benefits of herbal wellness and the importance of sustainability. This approach deepens our connection to the land and promotes sustainability while honoring the traditions of herbalism rooted in our local landscape. Every sip becomes a reflection of the beauty and bounty around us, inviting you to savor the essence of our environment.
