The Heritage Association of San Marcos (HASM) returns with its annual Heritage Home Tour starting Saturday, June 4. This year celebrates 45 years of Heritage Home Tours with the theme of “See, Sip and Savor: In the Historic Gardens of San Marcos.”
The Garden Tour will be held Saturday, June 4, from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. and will combine two of San Marcos’ best attractions: delicious food and rich history. Guests will savor their way through the historic district while sampling southern hospitality and exploring gardens and historic archi tecture. Each home garden will also feature a musical performance by the SMART Orchestra.
The tour will start at 220 N. Johnson Avenue, the Classical Revival home owned by Dr. & Mrs. Ted Dake, where tour-goers can have a mimosa. The second home at 227 N. Mitchell Street is the Greek Revival home of former Ambassador William H. Crook and Mrs. Crook. Guests will be invited to partake in lemonade, cookies and a gourmet charcuterie selection. Next, tour-goers will lace their way through the historic district to enjoy English scones and other sweets at 903 Belvin Street, the Victorian home of Mr. and Mrs. Blake Stasney.
