Endangered Species Day 🦋🌿 Today, we’re highlighting the Monarch Meadow in the Arboretum—a space designed to support monarch butterflies and other pollinators through native plants and intentional habitat care. 🌼 Monarchs are an important part of our ecosystem, and spaces like this help provide the food and shelter they need to survive and thrive. Take a moment to visit, learn, and see how small actions can make a big impact for wildlife 💚 #MemphisBotanicGarden #EndangeredSpeciesDay

Thanks to the generous support of the The Knapp Foundation, visiting school groups now have a few more places to gather, snack, learn, and recharge. Their funding helped us add eight new permanent picnic tables across the Garden, creating a more comfortable experience for the tens of thousands of students who visit each year. 🌿
