The Monarch butterfly is the door through which the average citizen can enter. People come for the butterfly. They stay because they learn what native plants do for biodiversity — and they start connecting with keystone species, nectar plants, and the butterfly garden they didn't know they wanted.
Honestly, everything we do could be called education.

How We Learn Together
How We Learn Together
Workshops — hands-on sessions on native plants, pollinators, and garden design.
Field trips — botanical gardens, preserves, museums, and habitat sites around the region.
Home garden tours — real gardens belonging to real neighbors, at every stage of establishment.
Dinners and patio parties — the informal end of education, where most of the good questions get asked.
The annual Butterfly Expo — lightning talks, educational vendors, music, and our Environmental Champion award.
