NOLANVILLE, TX â Nolanville will be showing their nature pride this weekend.
The first-ever Monarch Festival at Monarch Park is set for Saturday, April 17 from 9 a.m. to noon.
Officials say it s the city s way of celebrating the monarch butterfly, whose migration pattern runs through Nolanville. There s a lot of plantings out there that are monarch friendly. There are different things that they need for eating, for hanging their little chrysalis, which is where they transform into a monarch. There s certain plants that the caterpillars eat for their food, said Kerry Fillip, economic development coordinator for the City of Nolanville.
Spring is in full swing in the Killeen-Fort Hood area, and with summer swiftly approaching, now is the time to celebrate. Visit the Monarch Festival to celebrate seasonal migration, the Heart of Texas RV Show to prepare for future vacations, local libraries for spring family fun, or a farmers market for seasonal products.
