Intermountain Healthcare's Park City Medical Center broke ground on its new community garden recently, according to an article on the Park City News website.

The community garden, situated in front of the hospital, is part of the mission to promote healthy living. Anything grown in the garden is available for community members to help grow or pick. Florida butterflies were released in the garden to pollinate and help it grow.
