SDTC is offering its 12th House and Garden Tour

Uncategorized

At the 2025 Tour, you’ll explore several magnificent Sherman country homes and gardens.

This self-guided tour affords one-day-only access to several of the region’s most magnificent private residences and their gardens. Ticket holders will receive a program that describes what to expect at each home, along with addresses.

In past years, the Sherman House & Garden Tour has featured lakeside estates, historically significant homes, working farms and horse properties, and Sherman’s most architecturally stunning abodes.

A garden party with refreshments will take place after the tour.

The Sherman House & Garden Tour is sponsored by the Sherman Democratic Town Committee.

Announcements will be made in the Town Tribune when tickets will go on sale. In the past, tickets were available from a DTC member, at the Sherman Wine and Liquor Store, and on the day of the event at the Sherman School, or online.
