Tea is grown on big farms called plantations, just like a giant garden!
Here's how it works:
-
Baby Plants: New tea plants start as tiny cuttings from bigger plants. Think of it like taking a little piece of a plant to grow a whole new one!
-
Growing Up: These baby tea plants grow in a special place for about a year until they are about 20 centimetres tall.
-
Moving to the Plantation: Then, farmers carefully move them to big fields, where they plant lots and lots of tea plants very close together. Imagine over 6,000 plants in a space about the size of a football field!
So, to summarize, tea is grown on large farms where small cuttings grow into tea bushes that are then harvested.
