The beloved, iconic monarch butterfly is in serious trouble; its population has plummeted in recent decades due to pesticide use, habitat loss, and climate change.
For five years, Rutgers Cooperative Extension of Ocean County has held a butterfly tent event in Toms River, NJ, to teach visitors about the importance of pollinators-including monarch butterflies-and the benefits of growing more native plants in your yard.
Susan Emhardt-Servidio, Rutgers Master Gardener Coordinator, Ocean County, explains how the tent event inspires young and old to take better care of the environment. Phyllis Delesandro, Rutgers Master Gardener, encourages people to live in harmony with the beneficial insects in their yards, and eliminate use of pesticides and insecticides whenever possible.
The life cycle of the monarch is fascinating. Watch this story to learn how a tiny egg transforms within about a month, into a spectacular butterfly.
