As in years past, the UC Davis Global Tea Initiative for the Study of Tea Culture and Science annual colloquium takes a broad view of tea: its history, use as medicine, role in culture and society, agricultural practices and the tea industry. Taking place Jan. 19, this year’s colloquium is entitled “Tea and Value.” Professor Katharie Burnett, as the Founding Director of GTI, will present the opening and closing remarks.

The all-day colloquium at the UC Davis Conference Center is free and open to all, but those attending must register in advance on the GTI website.
