Looking for a fun project this summer? 🦋 I was so excited to find my first monarch egg on my newly planted swamp milkweed!!

Did you know that only 2% of these little guys will make it in the wild? And that they only eat milkweed, and preferably the native variety?

This is our third season raising monarchs (last year we released around 100!), and it all started as a birthday present to my 11 year old at the time.

Do you raise monarchs or have you thought about it??
