Monarch Waystation in a Suburban Yard

Monarchs are one of the most recognizable butterflies. In this class, we’ll teach you to the requirements needed to turn your yard into a Monarch Waystation that will provide for the Monarch during their migrations.


Additional Information

Monarch populations continue to decline. Your yard can provide a place that provides the needed resources from egg to chrysalis during their migrations. We will discuss nectar and host plants and the pros and cons of different types of milkweeds.

Restrictions:
None
