City of Livermore

Livermore, CA

John Marchand

Mayor

Pledge Summary

The City of Livermore, nestled in the Tri-Valley region, is known for its scenic open spaces, rolling vineyards, and strong sense of community. As part of our commitment to environmental stewardship, Livermore is taking meaningful steps to support the conservation of monarch butterflies and other pollinators through embracing sustainable landscaping practices in our parks and public spaces. Additionally, Livermore actively partners with local organizations, schools, and community groups to promote awareness and education about sustainable landscaping. By fostering these initiatives, we ensure that monarchs will continue to find refuge in Livermore for generations to come.

Community Spotlight

Action Items Committed for 2025

Communications and Convening

  • Issue a proclamation to raise awareness about the decline of the monarch butterfly and the species’ need for habitat. This proclamation must incorporate a focus on monarch conservation.
  • Launch or maintain a public communication effort to encourage residents to plant monarch gardens at their homes or in their neighborhoods. (If you have community members who speak a language other than English, we encourage you to also communicate in that language; Champion Pledges must communicate in that language.)
  • Engage with community garden groups and urge them to plant native milkweeds and nectar-producing plants.

Program and Demonstration Gardens

  • Host or support a native seed or plant sale, giveaway or swap.
