Success Stories

The 80-year-old retired dentist and his wife have been working in partnership with the USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) to make their property a haven for pollinators

Some of MPF’s many activities in 2018 that benefited monarchs and pollinators include the collection of seed from MPF prairies and work on extensive multi-year restoration projects.

Missourians for Monarchs Collaborative members have risen to this acreage challenge and report nearly 305,000 acres statewide of new habitat and/or land newly managed to favor monarchs.
