Take the Pledge to Help Save the Monarch Butterfly

Thank you for your interest to help save the monarch butterfly from extinction. Take the pledge now. We'll mail your complimentary seed packet to the address provided in your pledge and send updates about MWRD programs via email.

Available to Cook County residents only and while supplies last.

I pledge to:

Plant milkweed plants in my landscaping.

Allow existing milkweed to flourish along with other nectar sources (wildflowers) to benefit monarch butterflies and pollinators throughout the growing season.

Learn how I can further participate in the Illinois Monarch Project.

Encourage my friends and neighbors to plant milkweed.

Consider reducing or limiting the use of pesticides in managing yards, gardens and outdoor spaces.
