The home displays furnishings and memorabilia and is named “Honeyshuck” for the yard’s honey locusts, whose shucks fall to the ground. The home was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976.

Well… the votes are in and for the third year in a row the Praire’s Edge tree at The Champ Clark House - Honeyshuck Festival of Trees during Christmas in the Green was chosen as the Fan Favorite! Way to go Tonya L. Teasley and team! In total we raised nearly $1000 to maintain this stunning historic treasure in our community and had more than 100 visitors to Honeyshuck. Thanks to all who toured, voted, served as a hostess/host or decorated a tree this year!
