What a great Open House turnout! Follow our page for future Open House dates. Thanks to Steve Lingenfelter, Katie and Selah Jones for volunteering.

This is a wonderful example of salvaging and recycling historic materials. Preservation is the original green movement. The materials, labor, and energy invested in constructing older buildings have already been used, resulting in significant carbon savings compared to new construction. Preservation not only safeguards the past but also protects the future.

PHELPS HOUSE OPEN HOUSE TODAY 3-7 PM. Great opportunity to take selfies or posed photos inside a beautiful historic landmark.

THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLORE THE HOUSE WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT, AND FREE ADMISSION.
