2012 White Bear Area Historic House Tour
We are proud and pleased to announce that Grandma’s Bakery is our signature sponsor for the 2012 White Bear Area Historic House Tour on Sunday, September 30th! We are so grateful to have them on board for this very important fundraising event. Be sure to stop by and visit them soon for all your bakery wants and needs!

Speaking of the tour, we are still accepting applications for houses for both 2012 and 2013 tours. Houses are selected for a number of reasons including but not limited to architectural style, history of the property, and previous owners of historical significance. We strive to offer a variety of homes on each tour that represent the span of architectural and local history throughout the decades. For example we may have an 1880s lakeside cottage with Bavarian influences on the same tour with a 1980s multi-family condominium building. If you would be interested in putting your house on the tour, please contact us and we can provide you with further information. Thank you! We look forward to hearing from you! Call 651-407-5327 for more info!
