SeaWeeders Garden Club members handed out free milkweed at the Boys & Girls Club on Lomas Santa Fe on Saturday, April 24, part of an effort to encourage residents to plant more pollinator habitat in their gardens to support monarch butterflies.
The group set up a drive-through in the parking lot and distributed more than 350 native narrow-leaf milkweed plants and 1,430 seeds for free to at least 90 Solana Beach residents who registered in advance. Due to high demand, the sign-up period closed in a matter of hours, according to the SeaWeeders. Distribution was limited to five plants and three seed packets per family.
