March for Monarchs will take participants on a journey through Houston Botanic Garden designed to mimic conditions along the route the butterflies follow on their northern migration from Mexico to their summer breeding grounds in the northern United States.

Along the way, they will face challenges and obstacles, and other times receive rewards. At each station, they will learn everyday things they can do to help protect monarchs on their long journey. The event will culminate with a backyard celebration, welcoming the monarchs to their breeding grounds, with food, sweet treats, crafts, games, and info on how to make your backyard a wonderful home for monarchs.
