WLIA 21: Butterflies in the South End

Today I have on a mother daughter team who formed and developed a buterfly garden at the foot of Lincoln park. Called the South End Butterfly Sanctuary, a reclaimed vacant lot with planting and gardening. We talk the basics of their project, shared inspirations, general pollinator politics, doing and urban ecology.
