Membership
At Ford House, there's a story around every corner. A membership is an opportunity to add your own stories to the home and estate of Edsel and Eleanor Ford. And your membership helps support our events and educational programs.

TRIBUTE GARDEN
Honor someone you love among the beautiful blooms of the Ford House Tribute Garden. Your tax-deductible contribution helps Ford House create a beautiful and living tribute to honor a special person in your life.
The 2021 Tribute Garden will now be in a unique and convenient location beside the new Visitor Center. Thoughtfully designed by Ford House’s talented landscape team, the summer garden will be an explosion of color that visitors of all ages will enjoy from summer to late fall.
You may choose to honor someone:
With their name on a sign in the garden ($100).
With a garden plaque and name on a sign in the garden ($250)
Or with their name on a bench on the estate and a sign in the garden ($500+)
Living honorees will receive a card notifying them of the gift made in their honor. A sign recognizing each special person will be installed in the Tribute Garden by mid-June.
Please respond no later than June 1. Feel free to contact Cynthia Sohn with any questions or concerns at csohn[at]fordhouse.org.
