🦋 Happy Pollinator Week! Let's help the Monarchs!

Planting milkweed in Spring allows Monarch caterpillars to grow and develop, and it thrives in sunny spots with minimal maintenance. A small change in in your landscape can provide these beautiful butterflies a vital habitat.

🦋 Check out the attached images from https://www.monarchwatch.org/waystations for more information, or visit the link to register your own monarch sanctuary! You can purchase one of these metal signs to place in your sanctuary, to notify others of its protected status.

📸 Urban Roots registered a Monarch Waystation in 2023, in a patch of Milkweed by local train tracks!
