She has worked hard to establish an officially recognized monarch waystation at her local high school, so it’s no surprise that even though it’s winter, Hannah has plenty of info to share with us about these gorgeous little insects!
Cecilia is one of our Drummers alumni, and wrote us this blog post about the monarch butterflies she and her family find on her farm.
