Wednesday, July 13, 2022 at 8:51 AM

The Branson Veterans Memorial Garden is in need of volunteers to help maintain the living legacy started by the late Ben Kinel, a United States Marine Veteran.

Kinel, who passed away on July 6, 2021, began the garden in 2004. Since his passing the reins for maintaining and keeping the garden going and growing was turned over to Jana Evans. 

The garden has added some new features and expanded to give the community and visitors alike a unique experience. There is a new shade garden, showcasing many varieties of plants and the new walking trail, The Veterans Freedom Trail. The trail was dedicated to Kinel and Jack Herschend, who helped Kinel start the garden, by gifting the land.
