Treat mom to a Mothers Day Tea in a Box

Lynnwood, WALocal News

The British Hedgehogs Daughters of the British Empire are offering a "Tea in a Box" for Mother's Day at a cost of $35. Each box contains an assortment of treats, including sausage rolls, croissants, cakes, and English tea bags, designed for sharing. Customers can pick up their orders on Saturday, May 10, in Edmonds, or opt for delivery within the Edmonds School District for an additional $5 fee. Prepayment through Zelle is required, and organizers stress the importance of signing up quickly, as the boxes tend to sell out. This initiative not only provides a delightful experience for mothers but also fosters community spirit through local involvement.

Events like this exemplify how local organizations contribute to social engagement and support within the area. The British Hedgehogs DBE's efforts reflect a broader trend of community-driven events aimed at enhancing connections among residents. As Mother's Day approaches, this unique offering serves as a reminder of the importance of celebrating and supporting local traditions.
