Nestled in Litchfield Park’s Tierra Verde Downtown Center is a tea-lovers dream: Ribbons Tea House, owned and operated by the Mounce family.
This charming, family-run business is perhaps Litchfield’s only locally-run purveyor of quality loose-leaf teas. And this mom-and-pop shop has the kind of variety that can rival even the big-box stores.
Joel and Arlene Mounce run their tea business with help from their three high-school-aged children. Joel told the Independent that he has become very close to many of his regulars and has watched neighborhood kids grow up in his shop over the years.
