High Time you had Tea in this Ulmarra garden

The weather has warmed and the jacarandas are blooming, which means one thing.
The Jacaranda Festival is on and its time to head to Grafton to enjoy the festivities.
For those who are wanting a special experience, then the High Tea in the Garden is highly recommended.
From 28th October to 5th November, Wendy Gordon, owner of the only open garden during the festival this year, will be holding daily high teas while it is on.
“We will be open from 9am to 5pm each day,” she said.
“I have about 500 petunias and hopefully we will get rain soon, so they will be all lovely for the festival.”
Wendy is no stranger to catering for groups and is baking up the scones, cakes, slices and many sandwiches that will go with the lovely spread that will be on offer.
“People need to come and see the village of Ulmarra as it has been done up beautifully,” she said.
“Then we are just down the road, so people can come for high tea afterwards.”
High Tea in the Garden is at 11 Coulters Lane, Ulmarra and the cost is $20 per person.
“There is no need to book, unless it is a large group,” said Wendy.
“Just so I can have the table set up for the numbers.”
Bookings can be made to Wendy on 0432 741 947.
