Earthbound Gardens is proud to be a Monarch Way Station.

These pictures show a glimpse of the habitat that we have created to encourage the survival of monarch butterflies. In addition to choosing a wide variety of both host plants and nectar plants, we are diligent in our efforts to encourage gardeners to consider leaving a little wild milkweed in their gardens. Wild milkweed doesn't get weeded out of any gardens at Earthbound. We also have added stands of ​asclepias tuberosa ​ (Butterfly Weed) and ​asclepias incarnate ​(Swamp Milkweed) in stands around the property. As a result, we witness the whole life cycle of monarchs.
