‘Milkweeds for Monarchs’:
Famous for their remarkable annual migrations between Mexico and Canada, monarch butterflies are important participants in pollinating plants in our ecosystem. Yet, their population has declined 90 percent over the last two decades. In honor of this year’s Earth Day, Mayor Slay has announced a new City initiative called ‘Milkweeds for Monarchs.’ Not only is this w great way to help increase the dwindling monarch butterfly population, but a superb way to better connect people and urban nature. Be a part of enhancing your community’s sense of place and building relationships between neighbors.
