DuPage Monarch Project Spreads the Word about Saving Monarchs

By Lonnie Morris

Monarch habitat is growing in DuPage County, and communities are taking action to keep it healthy. DuPage Monarch Project’s 2019 Annual Report spreads the word about these accomplishments, creating a knowledge base for developing best practices throughout the county and inspiring creative and innovative approaches to solving the pollinator crisis.

DMP annually prepares a report that is made available online (dupagemonarchs.com) and sent to DuPage County and the villages, cities, and park districts that have formally committed to making monarch and pollinator conservation part of their mission. 

You’re invited to read more about the Project and what communities are doing to save monarch butterflies and bees: Link to report.

DuPage Monarch Project: Communities Protecting Pollinators is the volunteer-led pollinator and monarch conservation initiative by the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County, River Prairie Group of the Sierra Club, The Conservation Foundation, and Wild Ones Greater DuPage Chapter.
