As of May 2023, the Rose Farm & Rose Lane are closed to all visitation. The house will undergo a full rehabilitation. This work prohibits the use of the area around the house and lane during construction. Worker safety and resource protection are key.
Eisenhower National Historic Site Garden Volunteers tend to the Eisenhower garden throughout the year and harvest the vegetables as the produce comes in.

Garden
The Eisenhowers normally planted a vegetable garden each year and our team of volunteers help us recreate the garden each season. From May through October, volunteers lay out the garden, tend to the vegetables, and harvest the produce as it comes in. This helps us more accurately reflect the Eisenhowers’ time on the farm, but we’re also able to donate much of the produce to local food banks. Volunteers need to be able to stand, bend, and carry up to ten pounds at a time.
