Native Gardens to Attract Butterflies and Other Pollinators, Free at Campbell Library
Nancy Bauer started her journey learning about California
natives after well-known San Francisco butterfly gardener, Barbara Deutsch,
shared compelling stories and images of vibrant gardens alive with butterflies
and other pollinators. Native plants are an essential element in supporting
monarchs and other winged beauties, and can be reliable, no-care treasures that
benefit the local ecology while they beautify your garden.

Botanical Garden, the UC Davis Master Gardener Program, the National Wildlife
Stewardship Program, and numerous garden and nature organizations throughout
