The Buzzing Flutterby Nursery at Navajo Grove is a neighborhood beautification project situated at the base of the East Jefferson/Chalmers neighborhood. We are transforming multiple vacant lots into a Community Demonstration Garden on Navahoe Street, nestled in the core of Detroit, Michigan.
Here at The Buzzing Flutterby, we‘ll be nurturing a green space that offers a natural retreat for the community.
By eliminating the adjacent blight, we're fostering a community dedicated to sustainable land reuse right in our own neighborhood.
Currently under construction, The Buzzing Flutterby is being thoughtfully designed as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit community demonstration garden rooted in urban sustainability and neighborhood connection. This modern green space will feature raised beds full of bright, harvestable vegetables, vibrant native flowers, and pollinator-friendly plants that attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.
Once complete, the garden will offer community classes, peaceful walkways, and solar-powered charging stations to support both learning and leisure in an eco-conscious environment.
Directly across the street, Navajo Grove Detroit serves as a communal space. Reimagined as a open, welcoming greenscape designed for gatherings, learning and restorative time outdoors.
Both spaces will be available by reservation for educational programs, group visits, or recreational use, offering the neighborhood new ways to grow together — literally and figuratively.
Join us in promoting sustainable living through community gardening. Our garden will offer a variety of pollinator plots and raised vegetable beds. Come and be a part of our growing community!
