Adult trip to Cedarville: Home of the Famous Fossil Winery, Art Galleries, and Birthplace of Jane Addams

Join the Des Plaines Park district on a day trip to Cedarville: Home of the Famous Fossil Winery, Art Galleries and Birthplace of Jane Addams

This charming village is one of Stephenson County’s oldest and the birthplace of Jane Addams, Nobel Prize winner and founder of Chicago’s Hull House. The Stephenson County Visitor Center will be our first stop. We’ll have lunch and a wine tasting at Famous Fossil Winery with time for a walk in the vineyard, maybe even find a fossil souvenir. Afternoon stops will include a tour at the Cedarville Historical Society, a visit to the studio of master glass blower Daniel Elder, and the Pine Hill Studio of Roger Goodspeed located on the Jane Addams Homestead.
