LEARN.
Wings of Change Introduction – Wings of Change is educating our community on the important roles butterflies and moths play in our ecosystem. The first step in butterfly conservation is to learn. Butterflies and Moths serve as important keystone species, equally important after honey bees.
We invite you to learn with us, sign up for our blog or join us at our monthly events. Together, we are the Wings of Change.
By volunteering with us you will learn about butterflies, ecosystems, and more. We are always looking for help with seed planting, harvesting and sorting. We also love to have volunteers help us at our events (getting our stuff there and back, staffing the events, planning and marketing).
GROW.
Once we learn, we can start to grow. Both figuratively and literally. Building your own butterfly garden isn’t difficult, plant them and they will come. Wings of Change is always looking for help with seed sprouting, seed sorting, collecting and more. You will grow your knowledge with hands-on experience with plants and flowers that lure butterflies along their migration paths. We also have many amazing behind the scenes projects, like planning our events, maintaining our website, writing our blogs, and researching .
