Milkweed & Monarchs Description:
Monarch butterfly populations are in decline, largely due to a decline
in habitat, specifically - milkweed. Join MT WILD and the
Endangered Species Coalition to create a "Monarch Waystation" by
planting native milkweed around the Center. Biologist Glenn
Marangelo from the Missoula Insectarium will give a short
presentation on the life history and conservation status of the N.
American monarch butterfly, after we create new habitat.

Where: Montana Wild Education Center
When: Wednesday, October 18, 5:30pm
What: Help plant milkweed for migrating Monarch butterflies!
Bring: Gardening gloves and a friend. Please call to register so
