It's Almost Here!

Can you believe it...May 1st, it's almost here.  After a long winter, our pottery shop will be reopening for the season.  And, just a few short weeks after that our tearoom will be open for lunch!  The past few months have been spent preparing and we are excited to share all of our new changes and additions. Our front yard got a makeover and we have added even more parking spots in the front and back of the property.  The delivery truck just pulled away and we have a full selection of our Emerson Creek pottery straight from Bedford, VA.  Our pottery shop is also going to have an even larger selection of jewelry and charms this year (so many cute ones, I have a hard time choosing).  New decorative items and wall hangings are on display throughout the whole store and ready to be purchased.  Finally, we have a new candle line to share with our customers and we think you are going to love the scents that are available.  Our Tea Forte is back yet again in our tearoom and pottery shop but this year we have some new flavors for you to try.  Mmm, the hint of coconut in our newest line will be a perfect summer tea to enjoy with a fresh salad and mouth watering sandwich on a croissant or perhaps you'll save it for dessert with some peach, blackberry cobbler straight from the oven!

Did you know Emerson Creek now does weddings, events, corporate outings, family and class reunions??  Check out our blog next week to see what has been happening for these special events!!
