Please join us for luncheon at The Green Door Inn.
The event is a fundraiser organized by Haverhill Heritage for the chimney reconstruction at the Wentworth Brown House, 16 School Street, Haverhill, NH, facing the Common.
Bulit in 1797, The Green Door Inn is a Georgian house with four green doors. It and a drying barn on the property are the oldest buildings on Court Street in historic Haverhill Corner, NH. The house was built by the Reverend Ethan Smith, who advocated for peace with the indigenous peoples of New Hampshire. He was a classmate and friend of Daniel Webster, of dictionary fame.
From roughly 1850 to 1960, the property was operated as The Green Door Inn. It hosted generations of local residents and visitors at spring garden parties, summer lunches under the willow tree next to the drying barn, autumn dances in the attic and winter skiers. During the Civil War, abolitionists tried to burn down the Inn. A home across the street was a stop on the Underground Railroad; perhaps that played a role in the attempted arson.
Haverhill Heritage invites you to join this long tradition of hospitality at The Green Door Inn. As in days gone by, luncheon will be served outside, under the willow tree.
Menu: Inspired by a 1923 menu from The Green Door Inn
Roasted ham, roasted turkey or vegetable quiche. Buffet rice salad, cranberry compote, and Polish leek and corn salad. Biscuits.
Lunch includes a variety of non-alcoholic beverages.
Beer and wine available for purchase.
Home-made desserts from Bakestere will be served with coffee or tea.
After luncheon, Haverhill Heritage Board Member Geoffrey Mazullo will give a guided tour of the antiques, art and books in the period rooms of The Green Door Inn. The Jurin and Mazullo families began restoration of The Green Door Inn in 2000; it is ongoing.
Tickets must be purchased in advance. A $50 ticket includes luncheon, the guided tour and dessert. All proceeds benefit the chimney restoration at the Wentworth Brown House.

With Juno and ADISQ nominations, and four Canadian Folk Music Awards, GENTICORUM is one of the leading groups in Quebec’s traditional music scene. Pascal Gemme (fiddle) and Yann Falquet (guitar), the two founding members of the trio are also individually recognized for their solid contribution to the traditional music scene. They have been joined since 2015 by multi-instrumentalist and composer Nicholas Williams (flute, accordion); the pleasure these three musicians have in playing and creating together is palpable, both on stage and on record.
In twenty-two years, the trio has carved out a place for itself on the international traditional, folk and Celtic music scene. The group’s six albums and four EPs have received critical acclaim in Canada and abroad and have helped them develop a solid career. Known for their energy and stage presence, but also for their refined and precisely executed arrangements, the group has already performed nearly two thousand concerts in twenty countries.
The trio has performed on many renowned stages and has been programmed in several prestigious world/folk festivals, such as Celtic Connections in Scotland, the Tonder Folk Festival in Denmark, the Vijlandi Folk Festival in Estonia, the International Festival of Chihuahua in Mexico, the Independent Music Festival of Alexandria in Egypt, as well as in Malaysia, Israel, and Australia.
