FLOWERS, GLORIOUS
FLOWERS!
No matter what the season, Mansfield visitors will find a wide variety of
attractions, events and activities throughout the year.
As winter turns to spring, the season’s beauty is on display at Kingwood Center,
where thousands of tulips explode in a riot of color. In summer, breathtaking
displays of annuals, day lilies and irises draw thousands of visitors to these
spectacular 47 acres of estate gardens.
Spring and summer are also race season in Mansfield, with major race events
taking place at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. A 2.4 mile professional road racing
course. It was a favorite place of Paul Newman!
Summer is also a lovely time on Malabar Farm. This working farm, now a state
park, was built by Pulitzer-prize winning author Louis Bromfield and was the
place Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall were married. Take a hayride, tour
the farmhouse and pitch in collecting eggs or milking cows. Malabar has
two original Grandma Moses paintings in the Big House. Enhance your tour
by taking the "Afternoon With Grandma Moses" or "Romance That Became a
Legend" tour and program.
Unforgettable fun is why Mansfield is a favorite place for everyone! Hidden
Hilltop Alpaca Ranch gives you the opportunity to touch and learn about these
adorable animals. Take a spin on Mansfield's first wooden carrousel to be built
since the 1930's at the Richland Carrousel Park.
The Falcon and Friends is a live bird natural educational program offered at the
The Ohio Bird Sanctuary. See birds up-close and learn about these birds of prey
while strolling through the songbird aviary.
CITY OF CHURCHES & SPIRITUAL JOURNEYS
Mansfield became a city on June 11, 1808. Before the turn of the century
Mansfield was known as the "City of Churches." This tour is conducted by a
professional staff member of BibleWalk where you can re-live Mansfield's
religious heritage by touring all or any of Mansfield's historic churches.
For garden lovers, there are plenty of
outstanding greenhouses available in
Mansfield. Alta Florist and Greenhouse can
give your groups a seasonal demonstration
on creating the perfect centerpiece for any
occasion. Then it's raffled off to a guest on
the coach! Possum Run Greenhouse is Ohio's
most talked about garden center with a
rainbow bridge,
shopping galore
and an enormous
waterfall all
located in a
restored century
barn. And
it's one of the
coldest spots in
North Central
Ohio! The Blueberry Patch Greenhouse and Gifts is Ohio's largest blueberry
plantation. Pick your own blueberries or enjoy them already picked for you!
Wayne's Country Market carries local produce with a year around Amish bakery,
Waggoner Premium Chocolates and wine & cheese tasting for your pleasure.

and more. Bikes are available at locations throughout the Trail for visitors.
While so many places curl up and nap away the winter, Mansfield comes alive.
Downhill skiing and snowboarding at Snow Trails Ski Resort are joined by a
brand-new addition: a tube run. Groups can even tour Snow Trails when the
weather is not so cold by getting a behind the scenes tour of their multi-million
dollar snow machines, vertical tubing carpet, Lodge and ski lift.
Winter holidays bring even more beauty to the region as Christmas Time
in the City begins in the Historic Carrousel District in downtown Mansfield.
Christmas music fills the streets with glorious sounds as you shop your way
through the variety of stores. Kingwood Center’s Christmas dried-flower and
natural ornament displays are breathtaking in the Mansion. Oak Hill Cottage
is decorated in a Victorian Dicken's Theme where you are sure you've stepped
back in time. The Christmas Wunderland drive-thru light display at the
Richland County Fairgrounds is a must-see for everyone, as well as the Herlihy
Christmas House which is decked for the season with more than 25 themed
Christmas trees and welcoming visitors.
MUNCH YOUR WAY THROUGH MANSFIELD

attractions
You know that when a restaurant, shop or cafe
is featured on the Food Network or in national
magazines, it’s got to be good. That’s the case with the
Squirrel’s Den. This tiny shop in downtown Mansfield is
crammed with awesome chocolates, fresh-roasted nuts
and popcorn in many flavors – or served plain for the
purist. Groups are greeted by Grandma Squirrel with
advanced notice and well worth the visit!
The Eatmor Bundt Company offers rich, delicious cakes
that are baked from scratch with the finest ingredients
in the boutique bakery. Baker Joyce Wells’ mini or
full-size bundts are unbelievably delicious. They’re the
perfect accompaniment to the world’s finest German
teas she and her staff make available for purchase.
How about a stop at Jones' Chips retail store. Everyone
loves Jones' Marcelled Chips! They are even shipped all
over the world and are a Mansfield favorite!
