Learn when and how to harvest seed pods from common milkweed. This wonderful plant is critical to the survival of Monarch butterflies and other milkweed specialists. It is easily cultivated at home with careful collection and a little preparation. We will collect pods, clean the seeds, and participants will be able to take some of their seeds home to start their own milkweed patch. *Register by October 9.
Participation is limited and participants will be expected to wear a face covering and respect six feet of physical distance among other CDC and Ohio Department of Health guidelines. Events may be canceled due to prescribed COVID-19 protocols.
