Mark your calendars for the 2nd Annual Monarch Migration Festival, scheduled for September 10, 2016.
Open to the public. There will be many activities for adults and children. These will include making insect/rearing cages, honey vendors and information, making seed balls, Monarch Butterfly Photo Booth, plants, and much more. Special highlights will include the Ms. Marie Posa bus, Monarch tagging and a Monarch release. This release was spectacular last year. Enjoy the food, vendors, education and fun activities. We even have some special friends of the Monarch Migration Festival bringing additional Monarchs to release. If you have any Monarchs, please feel free to bring them to be tagged, and join our release. It will be spectacular. Join us for a great time!
