Culinary and lifestyle icon Ina Garten will host an intimate tea and garden tour at her famed East Hampton residence on Wednesday, August 27th from 4:00 – 6:00 p.m. A limited number of guests will be invited to share tea with Ina and walk with her through her celebrated gardens and grounds.
Known for her signature warmth and effortless approach to cooking and entertaining, Ina has earned a devoted following across generations. With her calm presence, foolproof recipes, and signature phrases like “store-bought is fine,” she takes the pressure off hosting, making room for only joy at the table.
Ina is much more than a kitchen muse, though. She brings heart and purpose to everything she does, including this special event. All proceeds from Tea with Ina will benefit the Eleanor Whitmore Early Childhood Center (EWECC) in East Hampton. Learn more about the Center here.

“A long-time supporter of the Center, Ina understands the critical importance of affordable childcare and high-quality early childhood education, especially given the affordability challenges of the East End, which is considered a ‘childcare desert,’” says Joan Overlock, EWECC Director of Development. “Ina’s generosity means the world to us, and to the families we serve. She just gets it. All children deserve the best possible start.”
Only 25 tickets are available for this rare and exclusive Hamptons experience. Those who want to attend and have an unforgettable afternoon with Ina Garten in the garden, all while making a difference and supporting Eleanor Whitmore Early Childhood Center, can visit this link to purchase tickets.
