Hola amigos!

Saludos de sus vecinos del norte en Olympia, Washington.

Hemos aprendido que las mariposas monarcas han disminuido en un 28 por ciento desde el año pasado debido al mal tiempo. Porque algodoncillo es la única planta que las larvas de mariposa monarca usan de alimento, te animamos a plantar estas en un jardín y hacer tu propia estación para las mariposas. Esperemos que la población se recupere.

Gracias por cuidar las mariposas este invierno.

Dear Friends,

Greetings from your northern neighbors located in Olypia, Washington.

We have learned that numbers for the monarch butterflies have decreased by by 28 per cent since last year due to bad weather. Since milkweed is the only plant that monarch larvae can feed on, we encourage you to plant these in a garden and make your own monarch way station. Hopefully the population will bounce back. Thank you for taking care of the monarchs this winter.
