Fort Wooster Park

2022 Greenspace Report

Fort Wooster Park is a stunning historical site that has a history dating back to the Revolutionary War. This summer was dedicated to emphasizing certain features of the park: Green Mountain Boxwoods were planted to bring attention to the informational stone at the front of the park, and Blue Prince and Princess Hollies were planted to make the park trails more prominent. It was another successful summer for the Friends of Fort Wooster Park, and the park has many more to come.
