To create a Monarch Sanctuary or Waystation, follow these steps: Choose a sunny location with good soil drainage. Prepare the soil by removing grass or weeds, adding compost or other organic matter, and testing the soil's pH level. Plant milkweed and other native, nectar-producing plants. Add water and shelter features like a birdbath, small pond, or flat rocks for the butterflies to perch on. Regularly maintain the sanctuary by watering, weeding, removing dead or damaged plants, and managing pests or diseases.
