GroveFest

Enjoy free nature activities during GroveFest at Spiegel Grove, an arboretum and the 25-acre grounds of the Hayes Presidential Library & Museums.

The event features hands-on activities and crafts at booths with regional nature organizations.

Ice cream, hot dogs and popcorn will be available.

Visitor parking is off-site only with the exception of those who have handicapped tags for their car. Parking will be available on the street and in ProMedica Memorial Hospital’s parking lots at Buildings A and B, located at 605. Third Ave. Spiegel Grove is a short walk to the east of the hospital parking lots.

GroveFest celebrates nature, Spiegel Grove and President Rutherford and First Lady Lucy Hayes’ love of the outdoors. The couple raised cows and chickens and planted trees on their beloved estate. Lucy Hayes’ favorite pastime was fishing, and she loved nature so much that her official White House china had images of the flora and fauna of the United States, from deer and raccoons to fish and lobsters.
