Our First Bloom Tea was a big success!
The garden is beautiful, cultivated by volunteers of the Bayport Heritage Association and the Sayville Garden Club, with the harvest benefiting the Sayville Food Pantry.

Unfortunately, the roses didn’t cooperate and bloomed a little too soon this year. The winter on Long Island was exceptionally warm and the roses were gone by June 15th. 

Serving the annual favorite, Strawberry Soup
