Gardening for Butterflies and Their Caterpillars

Learn all about butterflies and caterpillars with Samantha Nestory

About this Event

The beauty of butterflies has been extolled for centuries – and with good reason! These delicate insects are a hallmark of warm weather and lend grace to the garden with their vibrant colors and gentle demeanor. However, butterflies need more than just flowers and nectar. They need overwintering sites, host plants, and shelter. Luckily, with some work, our gardens can provide these. Join us to learn about common and not-so-common butterfly species found in southeastern Pennsylvania and how you can transform your garden to support these beautiful insects.

Parking can be found in our Visitor Lot, and participants will meet for the program in our Visual, Culture, Arts, and Media Building (VCAM).
