About Tea

Tea is a city in Lincoln County, South Dakota, situated as a suburb of Sioux Falls. Laid out in 1894, the community of approximately 6,800 takes its unusual name from a word chosen for its brevity, reportedly with no particular significance. The city features four recreational areas including Tea City Park and the Tea Athletic Complex, and public education is administered by the Tea Area School District.
