  • 2024 Martin Park Nature Center Monarch Migration Celebration

    Martin Park is hosting an event dedicated to the Monarch butterfly, an extraordinary species known for its extensive migration between wintering and breeding grounds. The event aims to raise awareness about the challenges faced by these endangered butterflies and to educate the public on how they can contribute to their conservation efforts at home.

    Participants will have the opportunity to engage in various activities throughout the day. They can learn about the decline of Monarch populations and discover practical steps for supporting their revival. Attendees will also have the chance to craft their own paper butterflies to take home, adding a creative touch to their experience.

    Additionally, Martin Park staff will demonstrate scientific practices by capturing and tagging butterflies. This hands-on approach provides valuable insights into butterfly research and migration patterns. The event is designed to be informative and enjoyable for all, inviting the community to connect with nature and play a role in the preservation of this iconic species.
