The Butterfly Garden at the Quinlan Covered Bridge
The Butterfly Garden at Quinlan Covered Bridge is designed to support butterflies and pollinators throughout their entire lifecycle. There are multiple host plants for eggs and larva, as well as nectar sources for adult butterflies and bees. While there are some annuals, the garden is primarily perennials. Established in 2019, our community transformed a barren patch of land at the intersection of Lewis Creek road into a pollinator paradise. This garden is located at the intersection where Lewis Creek runs under the well-known Quinlan Covered Bridge. This garden is a UVM Master Gardener volunteer location. Come stop by and smell the flowers!
