It may seem an unlikely partnership, but when it comes to putting on a spectacular morning tea, the team from Le Pine Funerals in Healesville and Healesville’s Country Women’s Association Nite Chicks take the cake!
Jenny Smith from Le Pine, along with Fay Van Duin and her team from the Healesville branch of the CWA, the Healesville Nite Chicks, will be serving delicious cream cakes and teas as part of the Cancer Council’s Greatest Morning Tea fund-raiser.
Jenny has a passion for all things vintage and will have much of her vintage china collection on display on the morning.
Included in the delicious old-world joy of a tea party, there will be fun, games and a bit of frivolity as well.
Entry of a $5 donation includes a lucky door prize and Jenny and Fay are asking that people dip into their piggy banks for some extra cash for raffles on the day.
“It’s a great way to raise money for cancer research and we are looking forward to meeting our regulars and hopefully some new faces as well,” Jenny said.
The Le Pine Biggest Morning Tea is at Le Pine, 102 Maroondah Highway, Healesville, on Tuesday, 16 May from 10am to noon. RSVP to Jenny on 5962 4141.
