As the sun sets in Garland County, the night is aglow with the lights at Garvan Woodland Gardens.

Those holiday lights and the garden's year-round visitors result in more than $5 million for the state and local economy, according to a new study.

Those contributions come through jobs, sales taxes and purchases made through Arkansas businesses by the gardens.
