MONARCH BUTTERFLIES: AN UP-CLOSE LOOK

Storytelling • Nature Photography • Live Monarch Experience

Discover the amazing world of Monarch butterflies and follow their journey from egg to caterpillar, chrysalis, adult butterfly, and finally release.

Each fall, Monarch butterflies migrate through our area on an incredible journey of 1,200 to 3,000 miles. They are beautiful, important to our ecosystem, and facing serious threats — and you may even find them in your own backyard!

Join local Monarch rearer and nature photographer Lynne Allen, who has spent the last several years raising Monarchs from eggs through release. Lynne will share photographs, storyboards, and her firsthand experiences. If the timing is right, guests may even get an up-close look at a real Monarch chrysalis!

Lynne Namath, a local naturalist, Monarch enthusiast, and member of the Palmer Township Environmental Steering Committee, will also share information about these fascinating insects, the challenges they face, what they need to survive, and their important role in our ecosystem.

This is an informal, interactive program designed for both children and adults — a perfect after-school, before-dinner activity!

Friday, September 25
5:30 PM
Palmer Library
3 Weller Place

Come learn about the Monarchs passing through our community and discover simple ways we can help them along their journey.

Sponsored and organized by the Palmer Township Environmental Steering Committee.
