Bringing the Spring House Back to Life
A historic restoration made possible by generous support
Thanks to the generosity of our donors and sponsors, restoration of the Spring House is now underway. The skilled woodworkers of the Galinus Carpentry —Justin, Dan, and Nick—are carefully and thoughtfully bringing this historic structure back to life. Their craftsmanship ensures that the Spring House will be preserved and enjoyed by visitors for years to come.
