Upcoming Events

Save A Monarch organization hosts events to spread knowledge and awareness about Monarch Butterflies and ways to help with the cause of increasing their populations. Special social events include guest speakers along with health and well-being activities.

  • Butterfly Fest

    Join us at Camp Vic to Rae's Butterfly Festival and support the conservation of our beloved Monarch Butterfly and the endangered Karner Blue Butterfly. Save A Monarch will provide free milkweed seeds and educational materials.

    Waupaca park and rec will also have vendors and activities for children. Let's come together to ensure the continuation of pollinator gardens in the multiple parks!

  • Annual Monarch Ditch Rescue (Volunteer Opportunity)

    Teaming up with Marathon Co Highway Dept, we select certain patches of milkweed to flag from being mowed. The milkweed patches between the flags are gently stripped of caterpillars and eggs that are then brought back to the butterfly gardens where they are placed in pest safe enclosures until they are ready to be released as a butterfly.

    Volunteers will learn how to handle, raise and release monarchs. Healthy food and drinks will be provided to volunteers as well as proper safety equipment
