Located outside, on the porch of the Interpretive Center in Kennicott's Grove.
The nature center at The Grove, the Interpretive Center, is the ideal place to begin a visit to The Grove. Here you will find knowledgeable staff and volunteers to acquaint you with all The Grove has to offer. Built in 1989, this 5,000 square foot building was constructed of rough-hewn logs to blend in with the woodland setting. It houses a collection of live birds, turtles, snakes and fish as well as specimens for educational purposes, environmental exhibits, and historical resources. In addition to bathrooms and offices, the building contains two classrooms, including the Natural Science classroom, which offers a place for visitors to learn and explore.
