The Loveland Castle
The castle and gardens are an historical registered site and museum.
It is a completely organic garden, using only compost, organic fertilizers,
and newspaper (to keep out weeds). It is a tiered garden, with thousands
of species of plants, many native Ohio plants and trees, plus plants from
around the world. There are several memorial gardens, and they are
working on adding the edible plants that would have been found in real
medieval castle gardens. Weddings are performed in the gardens all
summer.
Any car carrying the official map of the tour gets in free to tour both
gardens and castle. The parking lot holds quite a few cars.
They may stamp people's hands to distinguish them from the non-garden tour
tourists
