Late Summer Visitor

We’re helping to save the monarchs by growing late season flowers to feed them as they migrate through Cherry Valley. Zinnias, Mexican sunflowers, blue salvia and other offerings attract these travelers as they make their way to Mexico. And the butterfly milkweed that blooms in July makes a tasty snack for the caterpillars as they feed. (This spring we gave away free plants to our customers to take home and grow.) We’ve had dozens of the beauties visit the farm this week.
