Hood County – Romancing the Monarch festival

People are invited to visit our botanical butterfly garden welcome mat with pollinating plants and increase their awareness of the Monarch migration through Hood County.  Visitors will learn how to identify Monarch butterflies, see visuals of the Monarch life cycle and participate in tagging Monarchs to track their migration to Mexico. Butterflies will be released and will come to rest on watermelon for their refreshment. Appropriate activities will be provided for children of all ages.
