"Other intriguing places to explore in the park include the cork forest just behind Parkview School near Cedar Grove. Cork trees are pretty strange by themselves--a whole forest of them is really weird. Nearby is John Bidwell's experimental tree-growing area, where he planted a wide variety of trees from around the world. There is a self-guided nature trail to help you identify the trees.":

"The site of Chico's Shakespeare in the Park production every summer, Cedar Grove is exactly what its name implies. The entrance is off East Eighth Street. It's a great bike ride to the grove from One-Mile down South Park Drive, which runs the southern length of the park and is closed to automobile traffic.":

"Cedar Grove is home to the 2nd tree experimentation farm in the U.S. Trees from around the world were planted in the grove by John Bidwell in 1888.":
