About the event
Kids and adults will love learning about the monarch migration and how Texans can help them survive! All Monarchs emerging from Central Mexico pass through Texas before spreading out over the central U.S. and Canada. Sadly, though, Monarch numbers have been declining dangerously, primarily due to loss of habitat caused by urbanization. But Texans can help reverse this trend by providing vital waystations along their path that offer food, water, and breeding spaces. Learn how you can easily turn your landscape into a Monarch-friendly stop-over.
