Milkweed Pod Collection

Attention Conservationists! 

Please join us in our effort to collect milkweed pods this fall.

 

​

 

Who Can Participate? Anyone who wants to help pollinators

 

Why Participate? Milkweed is the sole hostplant for monarch butterflies. This particular
plant is lacking on the landscape and has had a direct effect on monarch populations.

​

How? Drop off your milkweed pods 8:00am - 4:30 PM Monday through Friday. Collection takes place now through November 12th at our office located at:

2650 Richville Drive SE, Suite. 100, Massillon, OH 44646.

 

Reminders: It is best to check the pods when they are dry, gray or brown. September is the time to locate milkweed plants to keep an eye on the pods while they ripen.
