The Groton Community Home Tour is an annual event showcasing several splendid homes that include both historic residences and newer homes with spectacular decor. The tour provides attendees the opportunity to view the beautiful interiors of these homes and do some holiday shopping from local artisans with handiwork on display in each home. Additional artisans and vendors are also on site at Groton Community School on the morning of the Home Tour. It is held on the Saturday before Thanksgiving each year (this year’s date is Saturday, November 20, with a Snow Date of Sunday, November 21.)
The Groton Community Home Tour is a self-guided tour in which you decide which house to visit first. Homes are open for viewing beginning at 10:00 a.m. and ending at 4:00 p.m. A map is provided in the home tour program guide, which can be picked up at Groton Community School (110 Boston Road, Groton) anytime after 9 a.m. on the morning of the Home Tour. Carpooling is encouraged if you’re spending the day with friends (but please don’t park for the day at Groton Community School, as space is limited). The Groton Community Home Tour is the perfect outing for you and your friends who want to spend a fun, relaxing day together. The school cannot provide any child care assistance on that day, so plan accordingly. The tour is intended for adults only. Advance price tickets are $25, or $35 if you wish to reserve a box lunch, and are available at the Groton Community School, at Clover Farm Market, 9 West Main Street, West Groton, and at Lavender, 137 Main Street, Groton. Tickets for the tour only may be purchased on the day of the event at the Groton Community School for $30. For more information, and directions, log on to www.grotoncommunityschool.org.
