MOdern Prairie Afternoon Tea Experience
Modern Prairie celebrates the art of gathering, slowing down, and embracing handmade traditions. At our VIP Afternoon Tea & Quilting Gathering, hosted by Melissa Gilbert and tea aficionado Danielle from Abeille Voyante Tea Co., guests will indulge in a world of flavor, conversation, and timeless tradition. Set in the Ashton Gardens, this intimate experience features English-style scones with jam and clotted cream, delicate finger sandwiches, decadent pastries, and a selection of fine, specially curated Modern Prairie teas.
As guests sip on signature blends, they’ll be surrounded by beautifully quilted accents crafted from our handcrafted fabrics, elegant tablescapes featuring Modern Prairie textiles, and artisan goods woven into every detail. A special make-and-take activity will invite guests to immerse themselves in the art of handmade traditions, creating a keepsake to cherish. Plus, each guest will receive an exclusive Modern Prairie x Garden of Quilts tea strainer—a perfect way to bring a little piece of the experience home. Enjoy an inspiring conversation with Melissa about life, connection, and the simple joys of gathering. Spots are limited—reserve your seat today!
