## Tea Time by the Pond Come spend a slow summer evening by the water with tea and good company. ### What to Expect This is a relaxed, casual gathering to unwind by the water. Here is what will be provided: * **For the Humans:** Freshly brewed herbal tea and some light snacks. (Feel free to bring along any favorite snacks of your own ) of course conversation if you would like or a place you can just enjoy the sound of nature and not talk to anyone. * **For the Fish:** Fish food will be available for anyone who wants to spend some time feeding them. * **For Mina:** There will be biscuits on hand for Mina, the resident emotional support pond dog! **Contribution** To keep these gatherings going, I am asking for a **suggested $20 contribution**.
