​Monarch Conservation​​

Phoenix joined the Mayor's Monarch Pledge in 2021 to help support their multi-generation, 3,000-mile-long migration. Keep your eyes peeled for these beautiful butterflies in the Fall through Spring in Phoenix. This species is struggling due to habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change, but we can help. ​


Help the monarch butterfly Survive and Thrive!

Join us in the pledge by planting native milkweed and other native nectar plants to help the monarch butterfly and other pollinators! Let us know what you did on social media using #PlantingforMonarchs. Check out these top tips on how to help. 


​Native Plants 

Planting native plants are essential for the monarch butterfly and other pollinators, while also supporting our Sonoran Desert biodiversity and conserving water.
