Mother's Day Herbal Tea - At Garfield Conservatory - With Indy Parks and Recreation

What could be more perfect for Mother's Day than having a warm, flavorful cup of tea or herbal tea with someone you love the most. And not all of us have mothers, so bring anyone closest to you honestly, or come by yourself! Join us as we learn about the benefits of herbal teas. We will have a presentation on the history of tea, more specifically herbal tea, or tisanes, as they are properly referred to; on herbs to grow to make your own herbal teas and what health benefits they might provide, as well as how to pick out the highest quality boxed herbal teas at the store. Participants will get to make their own herbal tea sample from herbs in the garden or sample different store bought herbals teas, whichever they choose. Our classroom will also be decorated in the traditional style of an English High Tea, just a little earlier in the day than traditional time and with a focus on herbal teas instead. There will be light snacks with the tea. A tea selection will be provided at the beginning, but at the end of the program, you will have an opportunity to make your own to take with you.
