Calendar of Events and Walking Tours

The Sparta Community surrounding the Jug Tavern hosts a variety of events throughout the year.

  • Walking Tours of Historic Sparta - Sparta resident and historian, John Lee, who has conducted the tour for almost 25 years, shares details of the history and evolution of the Jug Tavern and the Sparta community since its settlement in the late 1700's.
  • Garden Tour of Historic Sparta - Held yearly in late spring or early summer when the uniquely beautiful gardens surrounding Sparta's historic homes are in bloom. Click here to view the Photo Gallery of last year's Garden Tour.
  • Tag & Bake Sale - Typically held in autumn, this fundraising event supports the ongoing restoration and maintenance of the Jug Tavern. An invitation to donate your treasures in advance of the sale will also be posted.
