THIS EVENT IS SOLDOUT
Please join us for a special Garden Conversation and breakfast at Museum Hill Café from 8:30 am-10:30am with Kim Pegram, PhD. and Program Director, Pollinator and Conservation Research at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, AZ where she will discuss “Monarchs and Milkweed.”
Kim manages pollinator and butterfly conservation initiatives and research at the Desert Botanical Garden. The Garden’s primary pollinator initiative, Great Milkweed Grow Out, helps conserve monarch butterflies and other pollinators in Arizona by propagating and distributing thousands of native milkweeds, outreach into the community and researching how insects interact with milkweed. Her current research seeks to determine 1) which native milkweeds are best for monarch conservation, 2) how milkweeds support other beneficial insects and 3) butterfly hostplant ecology in other species. This event is supported by a grant from the Carroll Petrie Foundation.
Tickets for members: $32.00, non-members: $40.00
This event is limited to 40 people.
