New Monarch Station Arrives!
Edgerton Librarian Kirsten Almo & Mayor Christopher Lund pose in front of the NEW Monarch Station!

Chrysalis "Tree" at the Edgerton Public Library
In its inaugural year (2022) 36 monarchs were hand raised & released at the Edgerton Public Library. In 2023, 37 monarch's were hand raised & released at the Edgerton Public Library.

FREE Milkweed Stand!
In June, July & August milkweed seed packets are given way for FREE. Native & locally grown milkweed seedling pots are also given away for FREE in the month of June.

Learn about Monarchs!
The 1st Monarch Program hosted at the Edgerton Public Library was held on July 12, 2022!

It all starts with a child ...
In 2021 Pearl Ainsworth at the age of 4 hand raised 73 monarchs at her home in Pewaukee, WI. Pearl is the granddaughter of John & Lori Ainsworth.

Share your passion by teaching others!
Lori started to hand raise monarch's in 2020 at the age of 60! In 2020 Lori hand raised 11, in 2021 83, in 2022 183 & in 2023 253. Lori's goal is to teach as many people as possible about monarch's and how they too can HELP to save them!
