San Leandro Butterfly Garden Monthly Work Day
Saturday, August 5, 2023
Located below the Monarch Butterfly Migration Mural in downtown San Leandro, the Butterfly Garden reminds visitors that we live right on the Monarch's western migration path. Like all pollinators, the Monarch depends on California native nectar plants to feed and host plants to lay its eggs on. Learn about these plants at the garden, including showy and narrow-leaf milkweed, bush monekyflower, buckwheat, coffeeberry and coyote mint, among many others. The garden was installed in 2016 by Lary Huls with support from the City of San Leandro and the San Leandro Kiwanis Club, and depends on volunteers like you for upkeep. Come join us for a work day, every first Saturday of the month, 10-12. Rain cancels: If it rains at 9:30am on a work day, it is canceled.
