    • “HELLO, WORLD!”

      The magical metamorphosis begins when the female monarch searches for milkweed and lays her precious eggs.

    • THE MUNCHING CATERPILLAR

      Monarchs depend on milkweed for survival. Their caterpillars only eat milkweed plants and butterflies use it to lay their eggs.

    • PEEK-A-BOO METAMORPHOSIS

      Watch the chrysalis as the pupa changes from the body parts of a caterpillar into the body parts of a butterfly.

    • WINGS!

      While beautiful, the distinctive colors of a Monarch’s wings warn predators that the monarch is foul tasting and poisonous.

  • MILKWEED
    • MILKWEED – SPRING & SUMMER

      Gaining its name from the milky sap secreted when stems are broken, Milkweed produces some of the most complex flowers in the plant kingdom.

    • MILKWEED – FALL & WINTER

      With more than 100 different milkweed species native to North America, the best time to collect common milkweed is in the Fall.

    • BUTTERFLY GARDENING

      Monarch Waystations are places that provide milkweed and nectar throughout their spring and summer breeding areas in North America.

    • MILKWEED – TAKE ACTION!

      Grow milkweed plants for Monarch breeding and to provide them with a food source. Grow nectar plants so Monarchs have energy for migration.
