Monarch caterpillars, round two! 😍🦋🌱

05/20/2026

Now is a good time to plant milkweed and other pollinator-friendly plants, so they can get well established by the time the Monarch butterflies return in September. This OSU Extension Fact Sheet HLA-6503 gives information about starting native milkweed from seed. It’s quite a process! If you’re not up to that challenge, look for bedding plants from local places that sell native plants.

🦋🦋Volunteers needed! 🦋🦋
Would you like more hands-on learning about pollinator gardening? We have a dozen pollinator gardens at CommonWealth, and are looking for volunteers who can commit to 2 hours per month working with a couple other pollinator enthusiasts on a specific plot. We'll provide training and assistance.
If you're interested, let me know and I'll send you a link to the sign-up page with more information.
