Butterfly Gardening

Spring has arrived and we’re thinking about gardens! While gardening for food is rewarding, and growing exotic plants can be an interesting challenge, an often overlooked way for kids to get involved with gardening is with a butterfly garden. Butterfly gardens usually rely fairly heavily on indigenous plants, making them easy for children to maintain, and our bunch really loves seeing the butterflies visit.

TheButterflySite.com has pages and pages of awesome info, tips and suggestions for those planning on setting aside a corner of their garden to attract and support different species of butterflies.
