The 14th Annual Monarch Butterfly Festival is back this year!
Join us to enjoy crafts, exhibit booths, live butterflies, guided hikes, prairie plant sales and milkweed giveaways while quantities last!
The format will be a little different this year and will be taking place over two days: Saturday July 16th and Sunday July 17th, 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
We are reserving milkweed plants to give away on both Saturday July 16th, and Sunday July 17th, so you won’t miss your chance if you come out on Sunday. One plant is available per household.
