Quick Summary

The Grove Farm Homestead Museum is a living museum located in Lihue, Kauai, Hawaii. Originally built in 1864 as the plantation home of a sugar-mill owner, it opened as a museum in 1978. Lihue itself is the county seat and a cultural and business center for Kauai island, historically driven by sugarcane plantations. While the sugar industry has declined, many former mills are now tourist attractions. Lihue also hosts Kauai Community College and the Kauai Museum, which displays local art and artifacts.1
