Background Information:
In 2010, Manos Paschalis, owner of Manos Greek Restaurant, offered the property at Jackson and 14th Streets in Toledo’s Uptown District to Toledo Grows, a community garden outreach program of Toledo Botanical Garden, to create a community garden. The property was cleared, and in 2011 a design was conceived by Toledo Grow’s Alison Wood-Osmun to incorporate the idea of community, art and nature in the property.
The garden has become a drive-by art and sculpture gallery; a green, grassy space for children to play in; a refuge for urban birds and wildlife; and a place for the community to gather and adopt their own garden bed. Among the organizations utilizing this space are the Toledo School for the Arts, the Lucas County Board of Developmental Disabilities Adult Division and the employees of nearby Tolco Corp.
Components of the garden include: • A community vegetable garden, created as a raised bed garden in a rising sun design • Native gardens and border featuring a mix of native plants and shrubs and perennials supporting pollinators and birds • A stacked stone terrace • Nature murals painted by local artists • The Green Goddess Mural • A gathering place in a park-like setting • Performance / art space and play area • Bird and bat house totem poles, using recycled telephone poles to support wildlife and add sculptural interest • A rain garden
The garden is a certified wildlife habitat and Cornell University Urban Bird Study Site.
