Saturday December 12th, 10:00am-3:00pm
Visit the bucolic town of Amherst, NH and tour five beautiful homes and the 1774 Congregational Church on the Village Green. Sponsored by the Congregational Church of Amherst, this tour has become a favorite tradition. Ready for the holidays with traditional and unique decorating ideas, every home is unique in size and style and each will be a delightful surprise.
The tour has attracted men and women, young and young at heart, antique lovers and history buffs and those who enjoy gathering ideas for their own decorating projects. All of the homes are within easy walking distance.
