Along Underwood Street off one of the major Interstate 70 exits the HEART of Appalachian Ohio project will develop through the Muskingum Soil and Water Conservation District a large community garden and pollinator area complete with local art features.
This public-private undertaking will highlight the beauty and creativity of Appalachian Ohio and bring transformational change to an old abandoned property right on the main thoroughfare that is a gateway to Appalachian Ohio.
The garden will allow people to experience the biodiversity of the native Appalachian Oho plants. Visitors will have a complete experience as native plants will be utilized that touch on all the senses whether its through their vivid colors, aromatic scents, or diverse textures.
The garden Park will also feature local art work from the Appalachian Ohio region, and some will be rotated in and out to constantly showcase different artists from the region as well as encourage visitors to come back over and over again.
The Appalachian Ohio Garden park will restore a vacant area into one that showcases the region and will improve the quality of life for the citizens while also serving as a welcoming place to those entering Appalachian Ohio.
