The garden features a new entryway sign, welcoming people to downtown Oswego, and a colorful landscape of native and pollinator-friendly flowers.?The garden club also added three bug houses to attract bees and other beneficial insects to the area.
The Hilltop Gardeners Club has a strong history of beautifying the community.
