The Maryland House and Garden Pilgrimage is a 501c3 nonprofit organization with a history dedicated to the preservation of Maryland’s cultural and historically significant properties and landscapes. It started as a committee of the Federated Garden Clubs of Maryland, but in 1930 it became a separate organization. Each year the “Pilgrims” have traversed throughout the state to partake in the highest quality immersive tours of selected noteworthy properties.
Not only do these tours provide an exclusive peek into these significant places of our shared history, but they provide the Pilgrim with opportunities to connect to these hallowed places and to walk where history occurred. In addition, it is through these tours that the MHGP has been able to donate hundreds of thousands of dollars directly to over 150 properties to aid in their long term preservation.
