JUNE 2020 and continuing...
Spring House Institute began conducting Personal Tours only, in June 2020. We require all visitors to wear masks and practice social distancing. We have successfully conducted countless personal tours since then with no record of anyone visiting who tested positive before or after a visit to Lewis Spring House. We will continue operating in this manner indefinitely. Our 2nd Sundays tours are no longer being held but we are beginning to have small work groups of volunteers who would like to be part of this important and historic project.

4th Saturday SPRING HOUSE INSTITUTE workday Frost and Elliot cut back the elephant ears that had gotten hit by two freezing nights and thankfully the leaves will come back; they were so huge and beautiful all of last year. They also loaded up a wheelbarrow and put new chips down on the terrace. Victoria weeded the pink muhly grass bed on the north side of the house. Thank you all for your help. We moved the wandering gentile back on the terrace which is like any weeding, it always has to be done. Thank you!
