Teddy Bears' Picnic at the Grist Mill

"If you go out in the woods today, you better go in disguise..."

Rediscover the simple joys of a childhood classic.

Join us for our annual Teddy Bear Picnic, a family-friendly celebration set in the peaceful beauty of our heritage gardens. Pack your favourite stuffie and enjoy a gentle afternoon of live music, storytelling, lawn games, crafts, and cozy cuddles under the trees.

Our much-loved Teddy Bear Hospital will be on hand for small fixes and first aid (by donation), and we'll be handing out fun prizes for standout stuffies in categories like Biggest Bear, Best-Dressed, Most-Lookalike, and Oldest Stuffie.

Kids 12 and under get in free when they bring a stuffed friend. Adults can save by booking online in advance. And if you'd like a picnic to match the moment, our kitchen is offering hearty boxed lunches—available to pre-order at a discount.

Slow down, spread out a blanket, and enjoy a timeless day outdoors.
