SUMMARY:"The Southern Monarch - Kelly Long"    Sponsored by Two Creeks Gard
 en Club and Warren County Public Library
DESCRIPTION:Kelly Long\, a long time resident of Greer\, South Carolina and

  Creeks Garden Club\, who has a registered Monarch Waystation in Alvaton\,

 ages.com/ev/reg/u9r5ynz\n\nThe GCKY officers had the opportunity to hear K
 elly at the South Atlantic Region of Garden Clubs meeting in March\, 2024 
 at Greenville\, South Carolina. Kelly is enthusiastic and shares her knowl
 edge with all who are interested in pollinators\, in particular the Monarc
 h Butterfly. She raises Monarchs and also works to raise awareness of this
  beautiful butterfly. Their numbers have been declining and in particular 
 because the loss of breeding habitat\, milkweed\, due to the use of chemic
 als and the work to remove milkweed from farms and fields. Climate change\
 , forest degradation in Mexico where they winter and urban sprawl are all 
 causes of their shortened life span and loss of habitat. Their life span i
 s only a few weeks. They begin their migration from Mexico north and it ta
 kes 3-4 generations to travel into the northern United States and Canada.
