Baby, it’s cold outside — really cold — and if dreaming of tropical islands helps you keep warm, Hawai’i-based, women-operated Mana Up can fuel your fantasy with plenty of great, locally crafted artisan products deliverable directly to your snowy doorstep.
All products — food, textiles, home, health and beauty — are created with Hawaiian ingredients, elements or materials by Hawaiian and Hawai’i-based artisan entrepreneurs. The company is dedicated to helping local Hawaiian food, culinary and agricultural-focused small businesses grow their audience. Craft tea blender Byron Goo of Tea Chest Hawaii works with local tea farmers to create USDA-certified organic tea blends, including mango peach tea; jasmine tea; Nanea tea for anxiety and stress; Mana tea for immunity; Mahina tea to promote sleep; and other delicious, sustainably produced blends.
