Monarch Butterfly Migration Is Fueled With Milkweed; Plant Milkweed Seeds to Aid Migration


180 Million Monarchs are now on the move! Milkweed plants are the only food source for Monarch caterpillars. There is a severe shortage of Milkweed, and their young may perish in large numbers if a larger milkweed food supply is not made available. Your opportunity to make a difference begins right now.

Each year Monarchs attempt a massive 3000 mile migration from the mountains of Central Mexico to Canada and back. The Monarchs are the only butterflies that travel, delighting millions, both young and old across North America. The Live Monarch Foundation needs your help to plant some seeds and to send this message to other persons who will do the same.

So, take a moment to help ensure the miracle of the Monarch migration continues forever. One minute to save the Monarch's migration is a solid investment, and we all get to enjoy the butterflies for years to come.
