Fly to Mexico and back in one evening on a Monarch Migration Meander at Chestnut Hill Farm! This family-friendly hike will take participants on a guided walk through our preserved native grassland habitat. As you walk the gentle loop, you’ll learn about the natural cycles of migration and metamorphosis in the Monarchs’ lives. Meet Monarch caterpillars and adult butterflies up close and examine the chrysalis where their amazing transformation takes place. Learn about butterfly “tagging” and other tracking efforts in the scientific community to protect this newly endangered species. Identify the milkweed plant so crucial for Monarchs, and learn about actions your family can take to help preserve vital habitat for all pollinators. Your guide will be Ranger Tim, a former MA State Ranger of the Year and an experienced naturalist who knows the fauna and flora of Chestnut Hill Farm well.
