Since 1962, the Candle Tea has been First Moravian’s Christmas gift to the Greensboro community. Join us this December for live music in the Sanctuary, refreshments in the Tavern, Moravian craft demonstrations (star-making, beeswax candle-making, pottery-throwing, blacksmithing, and more), the Putz, and an opportunity to purchase your favorite holiday goodies, including chicken pies, lighted Advent stars, and Moravian baked goods such as sugarcake, ginger cookies, stollen, and apple dumplings.
This year, we look forward to welcoming back many of our beloved vendors after a pandemic hiatus. Our 2023 Candle Tea will be held Friday, December 1st (2:00-9:00pm) and Saturday, December 2nd (10:00am-12:00pm).
Our online store is now closed for pre-orders. If you placed a pre-order during the month of November, you may pick up your purchase on Saturday, December 2nd (2:00-4:00pm) during our drive-thru parking lot pick-up hours. (Early pick-up prior to or during the Candle Tea event will not be possible.) Items available in our online store (including chicken pies), plus many more craft items and baked goods, will also be available for purchase at our in-person Candle Tea event.
Please note that we are unable to ship items from our online store and offer local pick-up only. Thank you for visiting our Candle Tea store!
