There are a number of options for treating mom this Mother’s Day, starting with brunch at Fanshawe Pioneer Village at 1424 Clarke Road. Tickets range from $6-16.50, and the delectable buffet is accompanied by getting whisked back in time. Pioneers serve you roast chicken with seasonal vegetables, a baked ham and homemade pie.
