The City of Garland's Veterans Garden is a very unique garden space, near the city center for all the community to visit, contemplate and honor those who have served our country in the armed forces in various capacities, in many different wars. Hundreds of dedication pavers were incorporated into the textured walkway and other donors are recognized for their help in funding and supporting the project.
