Leaf Peeper Tea began at the Ocracoke Fig Festival in 2016 with a few packages of tea enhanced with figs and spices inspired by the famous fig cakes of Ocracoke Island, North Carolina. After successful sales there, the Village Craftsmen gallery began stocking the original Fig Cake Spice black, green, and red tea blends. The line has now expanded to include Black BEARY, Meadow+Fig, Muscadine Moment, Pirate Camp, Yaupon Elixir, Yaupon+Fig, Yaupon Chocolate Tea—plus two blends in pouches for pitchers of iced tea: Hibiscus+Fig and Sipping on the Pizer (yaupon with fig and lemon). Additional blends may be available seasonally and/or as inspiration visits.

Most of the Leaf Peeper tea stock is available at the Village Craftsmen on Ocracoke Island. The Etsy shop occasionally offers an expanded collection of products that vary in availability: rustic homemade soap, skin toner, bug bite spray, bitters, fig-infused vinegar, fig mustard, Village Bay herb and spice seasoning blend, etc.

Look for Leaf Peeper's Fig-o-Rama booth--which typically offers tea, baked goods and savory treats, and more--at festivals on Ocracoke Island.
