The tour involves the creative participation of several schools and other community organizations. Tour ticket proceeds benefit Elementary Schools & Trails Fund

Visit our permanent “Gnome and Fairy Village” for families and friends inspired to build their own houses, year-round. This tour was inspired by “The Fairy Houses Series®” of books by Tracy Kane and the amazing annual tours of “Fairy Houses in Portsmouth, NH.
