Spring Retreat at Ciderpress Lane : An Immersive Garden to Table Experience

3pm Friday April 25th thru 9pm Saturday April 26th

Join us here at Ciderpress Lane for a weekend away spent under the blooming orchard blossoms and winding down the garden pathways. Our time together will be filled with fresh spring flavors and florals, spritzers infused with lavender, small bites garnished with garden herbs and dinners created from all that is seasonally available. This retreat will be as full of time to sit back, sip and savor as it is with gardening, harvesting, baking, cooking, florals and hosting time together.

You are invited to come spend time in the garden and kitchen with us, to gather and enjoy the beauty of turning our harvest into a feast for our hearts, hands and eyes. We are planning our time specifically so we can have space to truly enjoy all of the loveliness spring holds, so definitely bring your journals or a book you’ve been hoping to read. We have time carved out for you to breath deeply the spring air and sweet apple blossoms as you enjoy time to truly soak it all in. It is amazing how our own hearts are revived by time spent in the garden, we cannot wait to welcome you in for a weekend away.

This is an intimate retreat experience with only 20 seats available at the table.

Here’s a glimpse at what our time will hold:

Spring Retreat at Ciderpress Lane

We’ll welcome you into the orchard, with the hopes of lovely spring weather to enjoy some time under the orchard blossoms. We’ll start our time by harvesting Lavender so we can make the most flavorful and beautiful simple syrup out of the blossoms. Then we will fill our goblets to take with us as we spend a little time getting dinner and our table ready to pass appetizers.

We’ll cozy up in our main room at our farm tables for a night of conversation and connection as we enjoy a leisurely evening gathered for dinner created fresh from the seasonal offerings. We’ll end our evening with decaf coffee and dessert before we all head back to our lodgings for the night.

Saturday morning we’ll welcome you back into the orchard for our house favorite - thumbprint scones, fresh fruit, coffee and brunch -if the weather allows we’ll dine under the orchard blossoms.

We have a full day of fun in the garden, space to relax, read, reflect, small bites and another evening of creating dinner together, chopping, prepping and getting all the goodness ready.

As Dinner cooks along we’ll spend time creating floral arrangements with the spring garden blooms so each guest can add their own piece to our table scape. The floral chandelier will be dripping with lilacs ready to welcome us in for a leisurely evening spent enjoying all of the bounty from our day spent together.

Our retreat will end at the table with dessert and coffee.

Each guest will go home with their own bottle of lavender simple syrup, plus the floral arrangement they designed for the table scape.
