Gardens at Heather Farm: Antique & Collectibles Appraisal Event

A very popular Gardens at Heather Farm event!

Most everyone has a few treasures on a shelf or in the attic, but has wondered what value they might actually have. In an event very much like the popular television program Antiques Roadshow, The Gardens at Heather Farm will help locals discover the monetary value of their jewelry, antiques and other collectibles such as rare books, coins or dolls.

The annual Antique and Collectibles Appraisal Event is open to everyone from amateurs to serious collectors, and even those wishing just to observe and learn more about the value of antiques and collectibles.

The cost for entry and appraisal of the first three items is $15.00, and there's a $5.00 charge for each additional item.

Professional appraisers donate their time at the event, evaluating objects in such categories as Oriental Art and Objects, Toys and Trains, Jewelry, Clocks and Watches, Stamps and Coins and Household Contents. All proceeds benefit The Gardens at Heather Farm, a non-profit organization that promotes an appreciation and understanding of ecology and horticulture through its educational programs and demonstration gardens.
