Butterfly Cycle
December 6, 2013 - Monarch caterpillars were discovered in our Vintage Gardens Butterfly Garden. This was an exciting discovery by students. We had planted the Butterfly Garden to help Monarch and other butterflies in their migration between Canada/United States to overwintering areas in United States/Mexico. Our garden includes plants to host and feed butterflies and caterpillars. Although our butterfly garden is small we are happy to see that it has been discovered and is being used as we hoped.
