Savor a scrumptious English tea and immerse yourself in Jane Austen’s world during a special tour of the Hedge House Museum, 126 Water Street in Plymouth, MA. Experience the social milieu of Regency England as described in Austen’s novels. Elegantly costumed guides share insights on the lives of provincial Americans during the period and examine how their experiences differed from Austen’s characters. Tea treats include homemade cakes and goodies prepared from authentic 19th century recipes of Plymouth families preserved in the Antiquarian Society’s collection. Mothers and daughters are invited to enjoy this special experience together on the Saturday of Mother’s Day weekend. Costumes welcome!
