Milkweed Restoration & Giveaway
On June 21. we held our last park volunteer day before resuming in September. To make it special,Santa Monica Mountains Fund (SAMO) and Monarch Mami joined Friends of South Pasadena Nature Park in a milkweed restoration and giveaway. Volunteers planted narrowleaf milkweed in the park and were invited to take home some plants.
The group learned about the relationship between monarch butterflies and milkweed, and why native milkweed and other native pollinator plants provide the best food and habitat for our local fauna.
The turnout was great and we were able to plant zillions (well, maybe around a hundred) small milkweeds.
