2009 - First Annual High Tea
In September of 2009, the Gardenin' Angels hosted their first Tea - and what an undertaking that was! They tested each recipe, did all the shopping and cooking, all the decorating and hauling, and served each dish themselves! They worked through tired feet and sore backs, and created a lasting reputation of a time honored gathering - the Afternoon Tea. .....And look how far they've come! The Annual Tea is now an event that brings guests back each year, excited to see what new delicious delight awaits them! A big thank you to those who made that first Tea possible - it has set the stage for a wonderful tradition.
