This Ada secret garden is really in plain sight
A secret garden is in plain sight of many passersby along Ada's North Main Street.
The well-tended and designed garden features mostly herbs.
Owned by the Tom Elsasser family for 35 years, the home and garden is located across from the Methodist Church and next to the library.
It's a pleasant view for the many drivers and walkers who pass by throughout the day. Next time you are in the area, slow down, glance over and enjoy the scene.
