Since its founding 150 years ago, Spring Grove Cemetery & Arboretum has been an important
part of Cincinnati's heritage. It serves as a guardian of much of Cincinnati's past.
In 1995, the Board of Trustees established the Spring Grove Heritage Foundation to educate
the public about and promote the natural beauty and historic integrity of Spring Grove
Cemetery & Arboretum in ways not normally covered by the cemetery's operations. Through
the sponsorship of events, tours, workshops and seminars, the Foundation serves to
promote Spring Grove's cultural, historic, and natural resources. Often referred to as
a "museum without walls," Spring Grove possesses fine art and architecture of eclectic
styles as diverse as any collection.
The Heritage Foundation also plays an important role in promoting the arboretum by
supporting its development and display of plants, including rare or unique species,
and conducting programs of horticultural education. Spring Grove's finely designed
and maintained landscape continues to attract visitors to its world-class arboretum
and nature sanctuary.
You, too, can be a part this education effort. We welcome your interest and invite you
to learn more about the Spring Grove Heritage Foundation.
