Candlelight Tours at Ramsey House

Once a year we decorate our home with natural greens, colorful fresh fruits and nuts in the manner that it would have been decorated in 1797 by the Ramsey family. We fill the home with candles and open our doors to the public for a tour. The Visitor’s Center will offer holiday treats, the sweet sounds of a children’s chorus, and Santa Claus ready to hear the wishes of the children that have been very good all year.

This is a free event and the public is invited. Donations are always appreciated to help support educational programming.
