Earth Day: Thank You for Your Participation and Distribution Milkweed Plants

Thank you to everyone who took part in Earth Day.

Following this great show of engagement, milkweed plants (Asclepias incarnata) are still available free of charge at City Hall, so stop by to pick up yours while supplies last.

Essential to the survival of the monarch butterfly, this plant directly supports local biodiversity and the health of ecosystems. A great opportunity to green your yard or balcony!

Please note: a maximum of 3 plants per person applies.

Care Tips:

• Repot the plants into a larger container if needed.
• Water twice a week until the end of May.
• They can then be planted outdoors.
