Monday, Wednesdays and Thursdays: 
Grove Farm Museum Tour.  As the American Civil War was raging between the North and the South, young George Wilcox took a lease on a struggling farm located on the outskirts of  Lihue, in what was then the kingdom of Hawai`i.  The farm had been chopped out of a large grove of kukui trees and was therefore called Grove Farm.  Advance reservations are required for an unhurried two-hour guided tour of the buildings, gardens, and grounds at Grove Farm.  Tours are given in small groups and are led by Kaua`i residents familiar with life on the island.  Grove Farm Museum, 4050 Nawiliwili Rd., Lihue. 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.  There is a $10 requested donation for the tour.  Tours are not given on national holidays and are sometimes cancelled on rainy days.  For information and reservations call (808) 245-3202 or visit www.grovefarm.org.
