Icon's Ada veggie garden of the week - you'll find it on South Johnson
Photo and story by Jimmy Wilson
"This week's Ada Icon Veggie Garden of the Week belongs to Lee Ann and Dustin Jordan and their daughter, Selena, (in the middle).
The Jordans have grown a garden in their back yard on South Johnson for many years. Their garden this year promises high yields, although recent rains and rabbits have taken their tolls on their beets and lettuce.
Their one-eyed owl stands guard.
The Ada Veggie Garden of the Week highlights vegetable gardens in the Ada area as a way of promoting self-sufficiency and agriculture education.
If you would like to have your garden in the Ada Icon, or would like to suggest that of one of your neighbors, contact Jimmy Wilson at 419-236-2904."
