Learn. Grow. Change.

Want to learn more about what we do? There's no better way then to volunteer. We have many opportunities available, please let us know your special talent, and how you can help spread the word about the importance of butterflies.

 

Restore Habitat With Purpose

We help you design living landscapes that support pollinators, conserve water, and strengthen local ecosystems.

 

Join Our Monthly Events

Join us online monthly to learn about our pollinator of the month through our blogs. You're invited to our upcomng events! We hope to see you soon. Together we are Wings of Change.

 

Welcome to Wings of Change

We protect pollinators, restore native landscapes, and empower communities to care for the land we share.

 

Plant Your Own Garden

Grow a pollinator-friendly garden with carefully selected plants that support local wildlife and thrive in Southern California and beyond.

Wings of Change empowers our community to care for the land, protect our pollinators, and understand how butterflies reflect the health of our soil and ecosystems. Healthy soil creates caterpillars, caterpillars feed other species, and butterflies pollinate the plants that sustain us. They remind us—just as many Indigenous cultures have long understood—that all beings are connected and every action we take shapes the world around us.

Through our educational programs,
community events, and habitat consultations, we help families, schools, and neighbors restore the natural cycles disrupted by conventional landscaping and large-scale agriculture.

As a certified Pollinator Steward, QWEL water-efficient landscaper, and ecological land manager, I offer practical, science-based guidance for creating landscapes that honor the land, support wildlife, and restore balance—one garden, one person, one seed at a time.

Overwintering Sites For Monarch Butterflies.


Overwintering sites are critical to the survival of monarch butterflies.

Along the California coast, monarchs gather in sheltered groves where cool temperatures,
moisture, and protection from wind allow them to conserve energy through the winter months.
These sites are increasingly rare due to development, tree removal, and climate stress.
By learning where monarchs overwinter and how to protect these habitats, communities can play
a vital role in supporting one of nature’s most remarkable migrations. Education, stewardship,
and local action help ensure these sites remain safe for future generations of monarchs.

See Our Upcoming Events

Our upcoming events bring people together to learn, grow, and take meaningful action for
monarch butterflies and the habitats they depend on. From community workshops and guided
walks to hands-on planting days and seasonal gatherings, each event is designed to deepen
understanding while building local stewardship. Whether you’re new to conservation or
already involved, these moments of connection help turn knowledge into lasting change.

Butterfly Habitats

Filling your space with native plants that butterflies need in order to complete their migration is not only great for our local ecosystems but also helps support the preservation of this vital species. If you’re ready to get your space in top condition to attract butterflies, you can schedule your Butterfly Habitat Consultation and we will come out and inspect your space in order to give you the best recommendations on which plants would be best for your butterfly habitat.
