Take Action
Small actions make a big difference.
Volunteers needed!
Volunteers are needed to plant trees and native plants that will provide food and shelter for overwintering monarch butterflies.
These volunteer events are part of a larger conservation effort to restore monarch habitat at Ellwood Mesa—one of the most important overwintering sites for Western monarchs. With butterfly populations declining due to drought and extreme weather, this project will plant hundreds of trees and thousands of native plants to create the shelter monarchs need to survive. Your help makes it possible.
Volunteer Days (Saturdays):
March 14, 2026 from 9 AM - 1 PM
April 18, 2026 from 9 AM - 1 PM
