Love grows at Stowe-- and that's why the first 500 moms will receive a FREE starter bloom to nestle beautifully into your home garden, while supplies last! The first 500 moms to check in at the front desk will receive a ticket they may exchange for the small potted plant in our Big Leaf Cafe + Shop. Add a pollinator-friendly pop of color to your yard, and bring a bit of Stowe home!
Shop our local vendor market on our Four Seasons Lawn, filled with one-of-a-kind artisan goods, jewelry, sweet treats, flowers and more to find the perfect gift for mom!
Enjoy live music throughout the market from local musicians Denver Crites (10:30-12:30) and Mariah Van Kleef (1:30-3) to score the perfect peaceful garden afternoon!
Young and young-at-heart families can spend creative time together and craft a special Mother's Day card for mom with us inside the Great Hall, while supplies last!
Treat mom (and yourself!) to an icy drink and stretch out on the warm grass, find a cafe table or your favorite shady spot and pick up a chilled grab-and-go light lunch or gourmet coffee from our Big Leaf Cafe! Or browse local food trucks on site at our Levine Pavilion, offering a variety of hot food options straight from the grill. All food and beverage options are while supplies last.
