About Us

Welcome to Buck's. We've been selling spices, teas, and hard-to-find culinary and herbal products since 1973, when we started as a small family tea room. Since then we've grown into a shop offering a wide range of spices, teas, infusions, and specialty apothecary items.

We choose what we sell carefully, drawing on relationships and knowledge we've built over the years to find good, distinctive products — including some contemporary items alongside the more traditional ones.

For the last few years we have committed to donating 1% of our sales to environmental and community nonprofits. So far we've supported the Washington Trails Association, the Nisqually Land Trust, the Blue Hill Land Trust, and GRUB in Olympia.

We like hearing from customers — how you use our products, and any ideas you have.
