Neighbors are encouraged to host! Dates will be posted as each year as the schedule is confirmed. Stoop Scoops is held Thursdays in July/August from 7-8pm. Each week, a different neighbor hosts at their house. It’s a great way, fun way to connect with friends, neighbors and meet new friends and neighbors.

Mill Hill Holiday House and Window Tour

A 57-year-old tradition, this signature event features homes in the neighborhood displaying special decorations through their front windows and on their exteriors. Some homeowners host visitors with holiday music, refreshments, and conversation on their stoops and sidewalks.
These events not only showcase Mill Hill’s nineteenth-century streetscape, which is among the most interesting between New York and Philadelphia, but also play a significant role in the historic restoration of the neighborhood. The proceeds from these tours fund preservation grants that assist homeowners in maintaining the Trenton Landmarks Commission for Historic Preservation Standards, contributing to the neighborhood’s charm and community spirit.
