Visit Lemon Grove's Third Oldest House
The Troxell Manor, built in 1892 by pioneer citrus growers William and Mary Ann Troxell, has been lovingly restored, along with its extensive gardens and century old Moreton Bay fig trees. Tour the manor and gardens and enjoy lecture-demonstrations by flower arrangers, herbal experts, gardeners (hydroponics, xeriscaping, organic), fruit and vegetable chefs, and more. Hear live music and see renowned artists at work. Refreshments under the trees -- bring the kiddies!
