A Favorite Nursery Tradition

Annual Holiday Tea and A Visit with Father Christmas

Saturday, November 30th

Our Holiday Tea is full at this time

As we approach the holiday season, we extend our appreciation to our customers by serving our traditional Holiday Tea. Our 1888 Schoolhouse will be decorated in a delightful, candlelit Pacific Northwest theme with woodland arrangements on white linen-covered tables. With each holiday tea we host, we are delighted to see returning families who have made this a holiday tradition for years. Enjoy tea, assorted sandwiches, hot scones with butter and local jams, chocolates, and desserts while listening to auto harpist Bob Harper and violinist and cellist Dennis Burkhardt who will play background chamber music to add to the 19th-century setting. Dress up for a formal tea with hats and gloves or come as you are.

A Visit with Father Christmas

Father Christmas greets children of all ages and listens to their Christmas wishes whilst standing beside our antique red clipper sleigh nestled in a woodland setting in our warm Front Greenhouse from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Watch for the joy in children’s eyes as they visit face-to-face with Father Christmas. Please bring your own cameras for keepsake photos.

Wishing you a joyful holiday season!
