Day at Butterfly Way for Ella, Ella, Michael and You
| Sunday, May 21, 2017, 10:30am - 12:30pm |
Take Hwy. 180 approximately 30 miles west of Silver City. Drive past the turn-off on Hwy. 211 towards Gila. Take the second turn for Hwy. 211 in Cliff. After about a mile on 211, go left (north) on Hwy. 293 and drive to mile marker 4. Take a right immediately after the mile marker sign, turning into the driveway with a small sign that says “Gila River Farm.” Please park in the TNC parking lot, walk over the footbridge and join us down at the Pond. The Butterfly Way is a habitat restoration project created in honor and memory of Ella, Ella, and Michael. Our mission is to enhance the Gila river corridor with plantings of native flowers, trees, and milkweeds for increasing pollinator habitat for birds, bees, insects of all kinds, and especially the Monarch Butterfly. On the 3 year anniversary of their passing, we will gather for a day of watering, planting, and working the soil, helping to create lasting beauty in their honor. Bring gloves, hand tools if you have them, a shovel, a bathing suit for swimming in the pond and playing in the river, and lunch.
