...And to Dig the Dunes for putting this all together

How does Save the Dunes support monarchs and other pollinators?

The Monarch’s migration is one of the most incredible events in North America and has captivated people for centuries.

Monarch populations are in steep decline due to habitat loss and fragmentation, climate change, and pollution. Dedicated work across all sectors of society is underway to help Monarch populations recover. These efforts include planting milkweed (Asclepias species) essential for the Monarch's survival and building awareness of the perils facing all pollinators, including the Monarch.
Save the Dunes is actively engaged in several pollinator conservation initiatives to foster protection in our natural areas and at home in our gardens. Our most recent initiative is the creation of Volume 2 of Living in the Dunes: A Homeowner's Guide to Pollinator Garden Landscaping in Indiana's Coastal Communities. The Guide provides rich content on the diverse ecosystems, incredible pollinator species, and beautiful native plants found throughout Northwest Indiana. It also provides the tools and inspiration to transform the everyday gardener into a powerful protector of native pollinators at home. Be sure to pick up your guide at the fest!
