The Jefferson Garden Club has awarded August Yard of the Month honors to Craig and Polly Kinsey who live at 804 W. Lincoln Way.
A rock garden in the front yard shows off a river birch tree surrounded by a dwarf Korean lilac and daisy plants. Rocks of all sizes surround the border of their house. Polly collects rocks and places them throughout the yard.
In the back a large crab apple tree adds shade. Other plants in the area include honeysuckle, ornamental grasses and rose-pink flowering sedum. An old bicycle adds decoration at the base of the deck. Also in the backyard grows an outstanding vegetable garden with peppers, cucumber, tomatoes and a large asparagus bed at the north end.
