You won't want to miss our first Open House of 2023!  


The McCready House at 1620 Main will be open on Saturday, January 7, 11 am - 2 pm. Light refreshments will be provided. A $5 donation to FHFG is suggested.

Built around 1916, the house is significant as a fine example of a substantial Bungalow style and its association with William J. McCready, original owner and founder of what later became Copeland Lumber Company. The McCready family is also noted for the Storybook Lane holiday display that many fondly remember. Other residents of the house included the families of H.J. Block (1950s) and Howard Barkley (1960s).

The property was on the 2016 Home and and 2017 Garden Tours. It features a recently remodeled kitchen. If you missed it then, or want to see it again, invite your friends and RSVP.  We will have a limited number of "tickets" available with preference to FHFG members.

While this is a free event, we are hoping guests will make a suggested minimum donation of $5. A donation jar will be available at the event if you prefer to donate offline.
