The Grove–A Big Bite of University History

Just last month, an exciting new cookbook arrived on the Virginia Tech campus (actually, two did, but the other one will get its own post, too!): The Grove: Recipes and History of Virginia Tech’s Presidential Residence. Last week, we acquired a copy for the History of Food & Drink Collection. In addition to the recipes, the book also features an illustrated history of the Grove itself.Since it’s a relatively new publication and proceeds from sales are going to the endowment for the Employees’ Spouse and Dependent Scholarship Program, you can’t expect me to give too much away on the blog.

We’re adding a non-circulating copy here in Special Collections, but there will also be a copy going on the 3rd floor, if you’d like to check it out! If you’re looking for a copy all your own, you can pick one up at the University Bookstore or order it online.
