Backyard and Beyond: Butterfly Seed Balls

to
Cost: Free with admission

Monarchs need milkweed to survive! Unfortunately for the monarch butterflies, Massachusetts has less and less of the herbaceous perennial, which means fewer places for monarch moms to lay their eggs. We’ll be making seed balls filled with native milkweed seed and other flowers butterflies love. Bring your seed ball home, toss it into a sunny spot, and grow some milkweed for the butterflies! Inclement weather may result in changes to the program, or cancellation.
