Pinecone Cottage Tea House – A Woodland Faerie Afternoon Tea

May 24 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

Woodland faeries are magical creatures that have a whimsical connection to nature. The Fay have inspired this Woodland Faerie Afternoon Tea featuring herbs, fruit, spring veggies, flowers, and of course, mushrooms. There are many signs to look out for which may reveal the presence of Forest Faeries. Faeries often arrange torn leaves to send messages to their faerie friends. They may also sprinkle faerie dust along mossy trails to guide others back to their homes. Because faeries prefer their dwellings to stay hidden, their homes are cleverly concealed—often tucked into knot holes in old tree stumps. Even though Forest Faeries prefer the security of the ground, remember that Tree Faeries live high in the treetops too!
