September Harvest | A Cottagecore Afternoon Tea Experience
September 5 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Welcome to our cottage table, where every plate tells the tale of late summer bounty slipping into cozy autumn warmth. Each course is handcrafted from the crops and fragrant leaves picked from our estate garden plots this very morning. As we proudly mark 25 years in business in historic downtown Downers Grove, we invite you to experience the traditions that have guided us since the beginning. Sit back, pour a cup of tea, and savor the magic of Pinecone Cottage.
