Pollinators are vital creatures in the production of our food. The monarch butterfly has diminished in numbers. One reason is due to the lack of adequate habitats for butterflies.

We will share facts about the monarch butterfly, give details about the monarch butterflies’ cycle and migration pattern, and identify the native plants to Illinois that are vital for pollinators. We will discuss how students can help provide natural habitats for pollinators.

Students will create and plant a seed bomb to provide food for pollinators.
