Winter Wonder at the Arboretum

Hellebore Tea 2024
Sunday, March 3, 2pm-4pm
Lake Wilderness Lodge


After a 5-year break, the exclusive Hellebore Tea is back! This popular event is a great
way to enjoy the afternoon with friends and other garden enthusiasts in a beautiful
setting. We currently have a few tables open for new Hostesses, as well as individual
seat tickets.


There will be catered food, mimosas, a silent auction, a hat contest, table contest and
more. Our contests will be judged by The Creative Gardener, Sue Goetz.


New for this year, we are offering Sponsorship packages to local businesses who would
like to affiliate with the Lake Wilderness Arboretum. We are accepting donations for our
silent auction and are happy to pick up items and gift cards.
