Afternoon Garden Tea Party at The Hermitage Sept. 30

The Hermitage Museum is having a garden party tea Sunday, Sept. 30 in its herb and perennial gardens in Ho-Ho-Kus. 

Guests will eat scrumptious finger sandwiches and sweets on the grounds of the National Historic Landmark, which was a tea-room a century ago. Tea for the event will be brewed from herbs grown at TheHermitage. 

The festivities start at 1 p.m. Space is limited to 50 guests. Tickets are $45 each and can be reserved at: https://thehermitage.ejoinme.org/MyPages/GardenTeaPartySept2018/tabid/990371/Default.aspx


Tickets include indoor tours of The Hermitage, witness to centuries of American History, including the 1782 marriage of Aaron Burr, the third vice-president of the United States.

Master gardeners will give outdoor tours of the Victorian kitchen gardens.
The gardeners also will instruct guests in the “Language of Flowers,” which Victorian elite used to send coded messages to their lovers and friends, and teach guests how to read their own tea leaves.
Proceeds will support upkeep of The Hermitage. For more information, www.thehermitage.org
