Tyler Street Community Garden

Tyler Street Community Garden Tyler Street Garden is a neighborhood garden built on a former vacant city lot consisting of vegetable raised beds and pollinator gardens.

The UHC, through a partnership with Grassroots Gardens has created a community garden at 73 Tyler Street. Before the garden, the parcel had sat vacant for many years after a house fire. The garden currently features eight raised beds, a handful of fruit trees, and a colorful assortment of perennial flower beds. Local institutions such as churches or businesses as well as residents can adopt and ma

intain a bed. There is also a tool chest with basic gardening tools available onsite. Contact us if you are interested in getting involved or would like to host an event at the garden.

We have a visitor in the dill....enjoying the warm weather. I hope it can adjust to the upcoming chill! This is a caterpillar of black swallowtail butterfly. Monarch butterfly adults were feeding on the Joe Pye w**d.

Did you know it takes at least 5000 caterpillars to raise one nest of birds, such as chickadees?

Although some people want to collect caterpillars and raise them until they turn into butterflies, research has found that captive raised butterflies are not at healthy and as likely to survive, migrate or reproduce as those raised in the wild.

Butterflies have evolved to produce many more eggs and caterpillars than can survive. If they did, there would be many more butterflies than habitat could (or should) ever support them. It's okay for birds to eat their fill of caterpillars.
