Monarch Butterfly Garden in Progress

All York County School Division elementary schools are participating in the Monarch Butterfly Garden Initiative Project this school year. Staff, students and the PTA from each school are working together to establish new butterfly gardens, or improve existing gardens, on school grounds. Students voted on native plants to include in their school’s garden. All students will be contributing a plant to the garden. The Monarch Initiative Project is funded by a grant from the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries.
