Mothers Day is just around the corner and it’s time you get to planning. Last year, you enjoyed celebrations at home that were sure to warm the heart. But this year, if you’re ready to get out of the house and you’re looking for a fun way to celebrate, then hop in the car and satisfy your wanderlust with a visit to the rustic, quaint town of Bluemont, Virginia.

As you travel down Snickersville Turnpike, hang a right onto Foggy Bottom Road and discover Dirt Farm Brewing, Henway Hard Cider, Great Country Farms and Bluemont Vineyard. 

These four, family owned businesses are offering a variety of unique experiences designed with Mom in mind and full of fun for the entire family. Whether the leading lady of your crew enjoys a formal experience or something more laid back, here are three ways to enjoy Mother’s Day in Bluemont, VA.

1.) Mother’s Day Tea Party at Henway Hard Cider

For the mom that is outdoorsy but still enjoys a little something special on her day and wants to be sure to include the littles, visit Henway Hard Cider where the tea will officially be served!

We know what you’re thinking, but can promise there’s no drama here! Keep calm, we’ve put the kettle on and it’s time to par-tea! This picturesque property sits just below Bluemont Vineyard and features an expansive lawn perfect for an afternoon picnic. Pack up your picnic blankets and lawn chairs but leave the spread to us!

Featuring shareable baskets that include tea sandwiches, cream scones, mini quiche tarts, shortbread cookies and sweet breads - you’re sure to snack your way straight to Mom’s heart. And let’s not forget about that tea - add an iced tea flight featuring four cold brew teas.

At Henway Hard Cider, you get the best of both worlds when it comes to beverages- cider and wine! The taps will be flowing with a Pecking Order full of springtime flavors such as the Hatch, (brewed with tea from Dominion Tea located in Purcellville, VA) and a recent fan favorite, the blood orange hard cider. The bar also offers select Bluemont Vineyard wines available for purchase by the glass or bottle.

We bet Mom will agree, there’s just nothing like the first picnic of the season, so why not make it a memorable one for her?
