onThe Extension Office is one of the smaller garden projects, but it is highly visible located at one of the major intersections in town. The garden is  located at the intersection of 9th Street and Highway 62 W.  It is one of the first things seen by visitors coming in to town from the west welcoming them to beautiful Mountain Home. 
 
Planned and installed by the Class of 1999, the crape myrtles were dug from the property where Wal-Mart sits. Many other plants were donated by several members and the plan was quite different from what it is now.
 
The focus for the redesign is to make it a simpler, less crowded garden requiring less maintenance. Many perennials have been added to the garden to add different variations of  colors and textures. Our goal is to create an attractive garden that is easily maintained throughout the year.
