Hello and welcome to our page. Below 4 out of 5 of us are shown. Myself, Heather, my husband (behind the scenesπŸ˜†), Kraig, and our 3 children, Aurora, Braxton, and Levi.

We started raising monarchs in July of 2019 after following a friend's journey on raising monarchs. We thought it would be a good summer project for our family. We gathered some information and went out to find our first Monarch egg.

Our first egg soon turned into 4, our first caterpillar soon turned into several, and our first butterfly, turned into 64. Our first season of raising Monarchs, we released 64 butterflies. We were in love! They are such beautiful creatures and their population is dying. They deserve to be saved. So, our first season lead into another. And here we are, ready to start our third season of raising Monarchs.

Hit that like button and follow along as we try to help save the Monarch population 1 egg at a time.
