About this Event

Santa Monica Mountains Fund, the official partner nonprofit at the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, is hosting a free narrowleaf milkweed giveaway! This giveaway is made possible through a grant from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF).


Narrowleaf milkweed is a gorgeous native plant that serves as a host for monarch butterflies to lay their eggs. Monarch caterpillars feed exclusively on milkweed leaves. Help us restore the monarch butterfly population by picking up and caring for your own milkweed plants.

We will be giving away free narrowleaf milkweed at P-22 Day Festival in Griffith Park on October 19th from 11AM-3:30PM. Six plants per household will be given out to ensure hungry monarch caterpillars have enough to eat.

¡Santa Monica Mountains Fund, el socio oficial sin fines de lucro del Área Recreativa Nacional de las Montañas de Santa Mónica, está regalando algodoncillo de hoja estrecha! Este sorteo es posible gracias al apoyo financiero de la Fundación Nacional de Peces y Fauna Silvestre (NFWF).

El algodoncillo de hoja estrecha es una hermosa planta nativa que sirve como huésped para que las mariposas monarca pongan sus huevos. Las orugas monarca se alimentan exclusivamente de hojas de algodoncillo. Ayúdanos a restaurar la población de mariposas monarca recogiendo y cuidando tus propias plantas de algodoncillo.

Estaremos regalando algodoncillo de hoja estrecha en el festival del dia de P-22 en el Parque Griffith el 19 de octubre desde las 11 de la mañana hasta las 3:30 de la tarde. Se entregarán seis plantas por hogar para garantizar que las hambrientas orugas monarca tengan suficiente para comer.
