Holiday Afternoon Tea

Our Afternoon Tea includes a selection of tea varieties, finger sandwiches, and sweet treats. This year’s teas will be set in our cozy fire-side lounge bedecked for the holidays. Enjoy your tea service, a roaring fire, and holiday shopping in the Flint Hill Store. And just in time for the Christmas season, enjoy a delightful presentation about the origin and history of Christmas cookies! Museum interpreter, Sue Price, will be discussing how the tradition started and wil pass along a few of her favorite recipes.

The Historic Village, Nature Center, and John L. Wehle Gallery are not open on this date, but we hope you’ll come back another time to visit.

Due to the nature of this program, special dietary requests and restrictions cannot be met. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
