📢 Eastern Monarch Population Update 📢

Are you in need of some good news? The latest survey from Mexico reports the eastern monarch butterfly population occupied 1.79 hectares this winter, a 99% increase from last season’s 0.9 hectares. While this number fluctuates, it remains below the recommended 6-hectare threshold for a sustainable migratory population highlighting the need for continued conservation action.

Read the announcement at https://monarchjointventure.org/blog/eastern-monarch-population-2024-2025

Monarchs face ongoing threats, from habitat loss to climate change, emphasizing the need for collaborative conservation action. You can support monarchs by planting native milkweed and nectar-rich flowers, participating in community science, supporting pollinator-friendly practices, and contributing financially to conservation organizations. Join us in protecting this iconic species!

73% loss of wildlife on Earth has occurred in just 50 years!!! This is catastrophic. This is extinction!

Brier Hill Gardens would like to let you know that we are now offering small to medium scale native plantings and habitat restoration services.

We have significantly increased our native planting and seed saving this year. We shifted focus from our vegetable gardening to native seed saving and planting. We have furthered and deepened our understanding of the world around us and we want to help.

We currently have limited supplies of common milkweed and butterfly (meadow) Milkweed available for planting. We have more seeds available but still need to get a good estimate of how much we have. For now, milkweeds are available. (Please message us to get scheduled in before winter!)

If you are interested in boosting native plant, animal and pollinator populations we are here for you!

No effort is too small. You can help mitigate biodiversity loss by installing native plants! Even one seed can make a difference!
