Butterfly Day Mar 14, 2022 !

Did you know that March 14 is “Learn About Butterflies Day”? While the origin of this national day is not known, it’s a perfect opportunity to plan an event or create media materials to share our deep appreciation for pollinators with our communities. Like bees, bats and other pollinators, butterflies make the difference between valuable fruits and vegetables on our tables. While we’re planting native flowers and trees, we’re also providing for our future.

Butterflies need our help to survive as they rely on flowers and other natural sources for survival. We can help them by planting more flowers. Spend the day learning more about butterflies and creating an environment that is friendly to them. Check out Monarchs Across Georgia for ideas for a pollinator garden.
