Tour Summary
Due to the amazing success of last two years tours, the third annual tour is scheduled for this Fall! Over 3,000 people took the tour last September. The tour raised thousands of dollars for local area non-profit organizations.

Come, enjoy a magical “one of a kind” garden tour! A self-guided walking tour of Fairy Houses displayed in the historic South End neighborhood of Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

Families, gardeners, nature lovers and the 'young at heart' will be enchanted by these whimsical fairy habitats, built for the fairies to visit. Come discover the joys and magic of woodland fairy houses, seaside fairy houses, fairy condos, fairy high-rises, farms for fairies and other fairy fantasies. Enjoy the tour, and then build them yourselves on Peirce Island!
