Hilltop Gardeners will meet in Oswego Nov. 10

While the hours at Oswego’s Little White School Museum are limited due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the museum grounds--Heritage Park--and the Heritage Garden featuring old-fashioned perennials is open for strollers to enjoy. The garden’s huge variety of plants is now in nearly full-flower. The garden is maintained by volunteers from the Hilltop Garden Club. The museum is a joint project of the Oswegoland Heritage Association and the Oswegoland Park District. It is located at 72 Polk (Jackson at Polk Street), just two blocks from Oswego’s historic downtown business district.
