Be a citizen scientist and study monarch butterflies in LICM’s Milkweed Garden. By measuring plants, rainfall, and monarch eggs you will be collecting real data that scientists can analyze! Your data will help them understand butterfly migration and will help conserve this species. 

Each Wednesday, take a walk through this garden and see how the plants grow as habitat for visiting monarchs. Milkweed seeds, will be distributed for you to start your own garden at home!
