Staff and volunteers of Mayo Clinic Health System — Albert Lea and Austin gathered Wednesday to highlight a new feature at the hospital.
Mayo staff, volunteers and auxiliary members gathered to dedicate the new healing garden.
The celebration dedicated the new Healing Garden, and a special plaque honoring the Austin Auxiliary was unveiled. The Healing Garden was created as part of the building expansion in Austin. It is a place for patients, visitors and staff to relax and enjoy the beauty of the plants and flowers in the garden.
A financial contribution by Austin’s Auxiliary made the Healing Garden possible.
