Please join us for the 2025 Back Door Kitchen Tour on Saturday October 11th from 10 am to 4 pm rain or shine! Presented by Residents of Old Wilmington this annual tour raises money that ROW uses to fund grants for local nonprofit organizations doing much-needed work to improve the quality of life in Wilmington. Our 2025 recipients granted money raised from the 2024 Back Door Kitchen Tour include Carousel Center DREAMS Center for Arts Education Castle Street Collective Williston Middle School Alliance for Cape Fear Trees Sister Isaac Center and Brooklyn Arts Music Academy. 

During the Back Door Kitchen Tour homeowners graciously open what’s called the heart of the home--the kitchen--as well as the first floor to share the history beauty architecture and southern charm that Wilmington is known for. This year’s tour will showcase eight stunning homes in the Historic District. (Historic homes are typically not ADA-accessible.)
