Magnificent Monarchs Workshop

Magnificent Monarchs Workshop

Chesapeake Wildlife Heritage will host its annual Magnificent Monarchs workshop on Sat., Sept. 26 at 10:30 a.m. at Barnstable Hill Farm in Chester. The public is invited to join CWH staff to tag and learn about Monarch butterflies’ migratory habits. Participants will also learn about the Monarch’s life cycle and help scientists across the continent track its astounding generational migration. They will leave with milkweed seeds to plant for Monarchs in their own backyards.

The workshop is free to the public, but space is limited. Advance registration is required. To register, visit zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/2026-monarch-workshop or call 410-822-5100. Directions will be provided.
