This session is designed to equip participants with the knowledge and confidence to teach about Monarch butterflies in outdoor and other low-tech settings using just two waterproofed posters. \n\n\n\nIn the first hour\, Carol will provide an in-depth look at Monarch migration\, life cycle\, their needs\, and the importance of Texas to this species. The second part is devoted to how to condense that information into a very brief talk\, perfect for outdoor spaces like school gardens\, nurseries\, and cemeteries\, and indoors at information table events. Participants will receive a sample script and information on how to acquire a poster set of their own. \n\n\n\nCarol is also bringing a variety of educational display items\, including: \n\n\n\n\nSeed packets for native plant species not commonly available (suggested donation: $3 each or 2 for $5).\n\n\n\n\n\nLaminated\, mounted poster sets (suggested donation: $25).\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nDon’t miss this hands-on opportunity to deepen your Monarch knowledge and enhance your outreach toolkit! \n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\n\n\nCarol Clark is an amateur botany enthusiast\, a Monarch Watch Conservation Specialist\, a Texas Master Naturalist\, and longtime member of the Native Plant Society of Texas.
