Picnics by Meg is a beloved small business that organizes and builds beautiful, rustic style picnics at any location, for any occasion and any size of group. As a client of theirs, all you show up and enjoy your gorgeous and delicious picnic with whomever you want, and then, you leave.
How it works is: A member of the Picnics by Meg team shows up prior to your scheduled picnic time and sets everything up for you. Your venue's complete with chalkboards, lights, blankets, wood crates, placemats, everything! And then, when you’re done having a great time, you just get up and leave and they come and clean everything up. Just like going out to eat, only no one comes and asks you to pay the bill.
It’s a beautiful concept, but a process that is extremely hard to nail. Well, Megan and her team have nailed it. In less than a year of existing they’ve already done over 100 picnics in the Livingston Co. and Mclean Co. areas! As I said, they’re beloved. Everyone in the area wants to book a picnic by Picnics by Meg! These picnics have been host to tons of dreamy dates and plenty of birthday parties, some people have even proposed at their picnics by Meg, and one person even gave birth at her picnic!!!
Okay no one has given birth yet, but everything else is true! They’re the perfect service for every occasion. I’m so excited to be talking with the owner and founder of this great business today, a personal friend, Megan Rafferty.
