Members and friends have been taking photos of the butterfly explosion resulting from Ellen Reisinger’s design and implementation of the Monarch Waystation at the Linda S. Castro Nature Sanctuary and the natural Castro landscape in general. We have documented over 200 native plant species in this 4-acre plot: more biodiversity = more butterflies.
Aransas Pathways properties in Rockport will have a continuing need for volunteers to create and maintain pollinator gardens, Monarch Waystations, prairie restoration, and add local native plants to the trails. Workdays and project leaders:
- Ivy Lane, 1st Sat 8-11 am (+plant walk AT if wanted)–Neli Spurrell
- History Center, 2nd Sat 8-11–Carla Rinche
- Connie Hagar, 3rd Sat 8-11–Pam Larson
- Linda Castro,4th Sat 8-11–Neill Amsler
