Easter has sprung
Easter Brunch or Dinner can be a lot to handle. Between church and Easter egg hunts, throwing together a great spread with the extended family and friends is like a hostess Olympic event. We know you've done the heavy lifting, Pinterested overnight breakfast casseroles, got the extra eggs and dye for the kids. Now it's time for a last-minute touch that will put your table on a best-dressed list!
Here are some tips and tricks we use to throw together a quick and easy farm table spread:
Farm Tip Number One: Remember that for your table it's not all about matching silverware and place settings — you can mix and match and bring in a touch of flavor by putting out some of your favorite seasonal fruits and veggies! We love carrots, radishes and anything with color for table top pop!
Farm Tip Number Two: Take a trip to your local retail florist for a farm fresh bouquet or a mason jar arrangement! Our flowers come in different sizes and varieties and will be ready for your table. We'd love to be part of your celebration.
Farm Tip Number Three: The best trick is to match your food dishes to your flowers. We love all the spring pops of color that go perfectly with a bright fruit salad or tray. Here's our favorite fruits & flowers in one great mix:
