Locust Grove Veterans Memorial Garden and Scatter Garden
The City of Locust Grove dedicated the new Veterans Memorial Garden and Scatter Garden with a ribbon cutting ceremony at the City-wide Memorial Day Service on Monday, May 27th. Falcon Design Consultants provided design, erosion control, construction documents, and the landscape architecture plan for the project. It is located adjacent to the city’s municipal cemetery, behind the rear parking lot of the county recreation center and just south of City Hall.
The garden is expected to include designated areas for scattering and burying cremated remains as well as a memorial wall and other features. The new park also honors and celebrates the service of veterans from all branches of the United States Military.
