Volunteer: Gardening for Butterflies - Afternoon Session

Help us seed some host plants for the world's rarest butterfly and weed out unwanted ones in the Preservation Trust's habitat plots created for the Island Marble Butterfly on San Juan Island. You’ll learn loads about the butterfly, current management strategies, and the results of some of the fascinating research currently underway on this charismatic insect.
