City of Morgan Hill

Morgan Hill, CA

Rich Constantine

Mayor

Pledge Summary

Morgan Hill is a city in Santa Clara County, California, at the southern tip of Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area. It is a community of roughly 48,000 people that is bounded by the Santa Cruz Mountains to the west and the Diablo Range to the east. Mayor Constantine of Morgan Hill, CA has committed to saving the monarch butterfly and other pollinators with his signing of the Mayor’s Monarch Pledge and has already taken the first step by planting milkweed at the Morgan Hill Community Garden. He also looks forward to engaging residents by having them follow suit and plant milkweed at their own residences to build more pollinator habitat throughout the city.
