Marian's Country Tea🫖
Relax and reconnect with your loved ones as you take your afternoon tea (and sweets) in a unique, country atmosphere on our blueberry & elderberry farm. Step back in time and learn why tea was an important ritual for my mother, in the 1950's.
Experience building your own 3 tiered tray of sweets and savory treats. All vintage recipes gathered from my mother's cook book. Finally try our signature blend of blueberry/elderberry summer tea.
Reconnect with your loved ones in this 1.5 hr experience.
