Springfield Forest is a forest and nature reserve in Springfield, created by Theodore Roosevelt.
History
When Homer was kidnapped to the Island searched Officer Scraps after him in the forest.[1]
Gary Chalmers took Bart here on horses on an educational trip. He later brought the rest of The Brotherhood of the Spectacles with him to look for Roosevelt's lost spectacles. While here, Nelson found them and fell down a hill, getting bumps, bruises and a broken arm, leading to Chalmers getting sacked. Bart and Chalmers later came back riding horses again.[2]
Springfield Forest is revealed to be the place where Abe, Mona and Homer lived when Homer was growing up, and where Abe throw Mona's stuff away when she left them.
After fighting with Homer over the secret, Grampa goes there to retrieve the recipes' box Mona gave Homer. The family reaches him while he was climbing down the mountain, and Homer goes down it to help him, but he tied himself to the same rope as Grampa's and they fall, but the fall is blocked by a tree. They find the box, and to retrieve it Grampa cuts his part of the rope off, after Homer says he loves him and not to do that, he was happy to hear it. Luckily Mona's bed was there to secure his landing, but the box was empty.
At The Timberlog Diner, they ate all together as a family once again, and Homer finds out that the pie they were eating was the same as the one his mother made. The owner found the recipes that flew from the box thrown off the cliff and saved the diner thanks to them. The owner gives back the recipes to Homer and him and Grampa hug.[3]
