Rent the grounds of one of our historic houses for a family wedding or reception.  
Woodburn is a popular site of outside weddings and receptions from April through October.  Come join our volunteer group who works with the bridal party as they set up for these numberous weddings and receptions. 

Make a financial donation or a gift of items needed for our  houses or special events.

Gifts and donations from individuals and Family Foundations and Trusts have been the life blood of our Foundation.  With funds given, the Foundation has been able to restore, preserve and maintain these two wonderful historic homes.  But the task is never finished.  Painting the exterior of the houses is a constant need and costs as much as $50,000.  Please consider a gift to the Foundation to assist with these never ending preservation tasks. 
 
Also, please don't forget that there are many other ways to give.  We always need cleaning supplies, paper products, vases of flowers and decorative items for the houses when open, 
 
Please call or e-mail the Founation to let us know how you can help. 
As a non-profit organization, remember all gifts to the Foundation are tax deductible to the extent of the Federal Tax Code.

Visit our historic houses and browse our gift shops.  

Woodburn and Ashtabula are open to the public for guided tours on Sunday afternoons from 2 - 6 PM. during April - November.  The historic houses are open other days when volunteers are available.   We are also happy to arrange private tours at any time of the year. Call 864-646-7249 and leave a message.
