Since 1973, we have preserved approximately 450 acres of natural areas & open spaces.

About Us

In 1973 the Long Grove Park District began with this philosophical mission statement: no taxation, preservation of natural areas, retention of open space, wise stewardship of various conservancy areas and to become a depository agency of easement grants. We currently have a “no taxation” policy.

The Long Grove Park District currently owns approximately 450 acres encompassing ponds and streams; wetlands and flood plans; woodlands; unique plant and wildlife habitats; trails and baseball fields.

As the Village of Long Grove continues to grow, the Park District strives to better serve the needs of the residents by offering recreational and educational programs each season.

Education

At various times throughout the year, the Park District will offer informational and educational programs.
