Expert on Monarch butterflies will show how to create habitat for them Thur. night at Midway Christian Church

Would you like to help create a way station to support and sustain migrating Monarch butterflies? The Woodford County Extension master gardeners will host a presentation on it by Joanna Kirby of the Kentucky Garden Club at 6 p.m. Thursday, March 1 in the fellowship hall of Midway Christian Church, 123 E. Bruen St.

The butterfly's numbers have declined, supposedly because of development of corn and soybeans resistant to herbicides that kill weeds including milkweed, which they need during breeding.

The program is free, but advance registration is required. To sign up, call the Extension office at 873-4601. (Wikipedia photo)
