Why are we promoting the Maryland House and Garden Pilgrimage and a fundraiser for the Heart of the Civil War Heritage Area?? We are thrilled to be the first stop on the tour, but it is more than that....
The beloved Bussard's Barbershop turned Welcome Center - was supported by grants and donations through both of these organizations. Without them, this building may not have the had the same fabulous rehabilitation inside and out! We are very proud and excited to be part of this tour that is also a designated Maryland 250 Commission event. Not every event in 2026 gets this kind of designation. (Yay us!). And, as Main Street Middletotwn, we are looking forward to welcoming visitors to Main Street Middletown (because we know our downtown is THE B-E-S-T!).
If you appreciate the historic buildings in and around Maryland and especially in Frederick County, we invite you to attend the upcoming Frederick Tour on Saturday, June 13th! This is an event that does not happen every year, so you do not want to miss this opportunity!
Not only will you have a full day of peeking into private homes that are rarely open to the public, you'll experience the layers of history that is palpable. Moreover, you will be supporting TWO organizations that do so much to preserve and educate Marylanders about our fantastic history. This is a win-win! Great history, beautiful private homes, gorgeous gardens🌺, all for worthy causes.
Tickets can be purchased at the Maryland House and Garden Pilgrimage website. Buy your tickets now, and we'll see you Saturday!! 😀
