Spring is here, and that means some of our feathered friends are nesting on the grounds. While exploring, please be aware of geese, as they can be protective of their nests. For your safety, we advise all guests to walk at their own risk and give geese plenty of space. Thank you for helping us respect our wildlife! 🦆🌿

At Ford House, we know how much our community values the lush, mature trees that make our grounds so special. These trees not only provide natural beauty but are integral to the historic landscape that Eleanor and Edsel Ford envisioned. To keep this vision alive, we continually monitor the health of our trees and take careful action when necessary.
