UH Garden Club - Developing Monarch Friendly Garden Spaces + Certified Waystations

  • UH Neighbor’s Garden (map)

Join University Heights Garden Club for a presentation on developing monarch friendly garden spaces on Saturday, March 11th at 3:00 PM at a local UH certified monarch waystation. Urban farmer and Monarch Messenger, Amber Mcpolin will discuss:

  • monarch butterflies and their importance in our ecosystem, their migration pattern, and their lifecycle

  • milkweed - growing, pruning, cleaning

Our garden club hosts, Andrew and Cathy Guzzon will be providing guests a tour of their pollinator friendly garden, as well as share the process of certifying their garden as an official monarch waystation.

Participants will receive special butterfly kits to take home with them to help foster pollinator friendly garden spaces at their own homes. Register to attend this session as space is limited. Registrants will receive the address of the event location one week prior to the event via email.
