Surprise! I’m talking about The Grove (aka Kennicott Grove)! Back in the 70s, some local folks got together to make the space special, and it absolutely is, and it keeps growing – probably always will be, too. Besides providing young and old with beautiful, natural trails to explore with lots to learn, The Grove is a popular choice for natural wedding settings! Check out some info on visiting for yourself!
