Photo Gallery: Backyard Preserve in Bloom

If you haven't checked out the for awhile, now's the time. 

The 38-acre garden and nature preserve is coming back to life, with spring blossoms in bloom and birds chirping.

The preserve, located behind the next to Safety Town, was originally developed with a grant from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. 

Its gardens are maintained by various businesses and organizations. It includes walking trails and an amphitheater used for outdoor weddings and other events.
