The Legacy Garden, a visionary project, aimed to create a harmonious space where the charm's fragments would be forever intertwined with the town's history.

Residents joined forces to design and cultivate the Legacy Garden. Emma's artistic vision brought forth sculptures, murals, and installations that captured the essence of Everwood's joyous moments.
