The date of the 74th Annual Home & Garden Tour has been set for Saturday, April 9, 2022. Our upcoming tour is highly anticipated, especially with our disappointment in having to cancel the 2020 and 2021 tours due to COVID-19. Thank you to all in the community - our tour attendees and generous homeowners, local partners and loyal volunteers - for your ongoing support. We could not do this without you!
Since the 1940s, SPGC members and volunteers have welcomed visitors from surrounding areas to experience some of the Sandhills’ most elegant homes and gardens. Adding to the visual impact of these lovely properties will be creative flower arrangements designed by talented SPGC members.
