Featuring: Author/Illustrator, Tracy Kane
October 4 & 5, 2008
11am - 4pm

Come to the "Second Anual Nature's Open House Tour" and see 100+ custom built fairy & gnome dwellings set along a ½ mile stroll through wooded trails during fall foliage season. Also meet and greet award winning author, Tracy Kane, who will be reading and signing her award-winning books. Visit our permanent "wooded village" for families and friends inspired to build their own houses. This tour was inspired by "The Fairy Houses Series" and the amazing tour of "Fairy Houses in Portsmouth, NH."

Read a letter from Mark Dale, Education Coordinator at Winding Trails. He introduces "Winding Trails" and explains why Tracy Kane's "Fairy Houses Series (tm)" is the inspiration for this upcoming event that will involve the creative participation of several schools and other community organizations. more
