We'd like to extend a big THANK YOU to Susan Bohnsack for her fantastic presentation on Monarch Butterfly Restoration back in May! Raising Monarch butterflies is a great way to connect with nature and give back, especially to a species that is now on the endangered species list. Susan is happy to answer questions people have on this topic. If you'd like to connect with her, just drop us a line via the Contact form at the bottom of the home page or via email to connect@dcsustainableliving.org and we'll put you in touch.
Susan also recommends this 5-part series that was shown during her presentation:
Raising Monarchs Part 1 - Finding Eggs
Raising Monarchs Part 2 - Hatching Eggs
Raising Monarchs Part 3 - Caring for Caterpillars
Raising Monarchs Part 4 - The Chrysalis
Raising Monarchs Part 5 - Releasing Adults
She also recommends the book, Raising Little Stripe: Caring for Monarchs from Egg to Butterfly. She has a limited number of soft copies of the illustrated book available for $9/ea.
