The Pollinator Milkweed Projectiles are a success in the tall grass behind our Community Garden boxes. Milkweed is the larva host plant for Monarch butterflies and eleven other species. It is a native plant that supports hummingbirds and insect pollinators as well. Thanks, Kim, for the fun activity!
