Children’s Tea & Easter Egg Hunt

We will be continuing our new tradition of an Easter Egg Hunt on our beautiful grounds (weather permitting). It’s believed that German immigrants brought the custom of Easter egg hunting to Pennsylvania in the 1700’s. While there is no documentation that the Verplanck children enjoyed hunting and rolling eggs on the riverside lawn in the 1800’s when the family resided at Mount Gulian, we think it’s highly likely. The Children’s Tea, held in Mount Gulian’s two main rooms, with tables set with fine linens, china and porcelain tea pots, is offered during spring break so as to bring families and friends together to share a special tradition. A craft project for the children will also be offered.
