The monarch butterfly is a beautiful species that undergoes an incredible migration, travelling over one thousand miles from North America to Mexico in order to go through a hibernate-like state called diapause. 

Pollinators rely on diverse plant communities in their native habitat which often consists of meadow plant species. For future generations to survive, monarchs require species of milkweed to act as their larval host plant. 

We hope you’ll pop into the shop on Earth Day, Wednesday, April 22nd, to pick up a couple free milkweed plants to help our monarch friends! We open at 10am and will be giving them away until they’re gone!
