A very special brunch

Celebrate spring together
Head outdoors to enjoy nature in all its glory! Enjoy the flowering trees and vibrant colors of spring together. If your mom is an admirer of fine gardens, treat her to the breathtaking classic English gardens at Hollister House. Or celebrate spring by enjoying a brisk walk along the majestic trails of the Steep Rock Association. Washington offers the perfect backdrop for a memorable Mother’s Day and celebration of spring.
Retail therapy
A great choice for family bonding! Treat mom to a shopping spree at the fabulous boutique shops of Washington and New Preston to refresh her wardrobe (or feather her nest) for spring. Our Spring Shopping Guide will help her find some great looks to rock as the weather warms up.
Still looking for a last minute Mother’s Day gift? Our shops offer a wonderful selection of unique and finely crafted gifts that will undoubtedly help you show your love – in style. And don’t forget to pick up some beautiful additions for mom’s garden at the Plant Sale at Hollister House on May 12th.
Pamper her – she deserves it!
Every mom needs a little time to herself to unwind and recharge. Help her relax with a massage and wellness treatment at Valley Spirit Co-op or a yoga class at New Preston’s ah Yoga. Or treat her to an indulgent afternoon at one of Washington’s fantastic salons. Who wouldn’t love a gift certificate for hair and makeup by some of the best in the industry?
Enjoy art together
Spend some quality time with mom by taking in an art show together. Explore fascinating abstract pieces by local Connecticut artists at the Washington Art Association and at Judy Black Memorial Park and Gardens. Then enjoy striking watercolors at Gunn Memorial Library’s Stairwell Gallery.
Savor wine and tunes
