Sugar Grove

The Village of Sugar Grove boasts a tight-knit community and ample recreational opportunities.

Residents enjoy the scenery and year-round programming at the Bliss Woods Forest Preserve, and also have access to the nearby 11-mile Virgil L. Gilman Trail, which passes through vibrant neighborhoods and quiet woodlands.

A variety of community events are held throughout the year including the annual Sugar Grove Corn Boil, where residents celebrate Sugar Grove’s farming history and are treated to live entertainment, a parade, crafts, a 5K race, fireworks, and (fittingly) sweet corn. Sugar Grove’s history is also commemorated at the Bliss House Museum, which offers a look at what the town was like as far back as 1839. Meanwhile, Air Classics Museum of Aviation showcases a collection of aircrafts, vehicles, uniforms, and memorabilia from the 1930s to present day.

Sugar Grove is home to Rich Harvest Farms, a world-renowned private golf course that has hosted various tournaments including the Palmer Cup and NCAA National Golf Championships. Rich Harvest Farms carries the distinction of being ranked by Golf Digest as one of the top golf courses in the United States.
