Milkweed Matters

This article explores the importance and overlooked beauty of milkweed, highlighting its essential role in supporting the Monarch butterfly and broader pollinator ecosystems. It connects this ecological value to the community-led Milkweed to Market project in Melgund Township, where residents participate in planting, seed bomb making, and habitat restoration through arts and recreation programming. The piece also reflects on how these small, local actions contribute to a deeper understanding of the land, including informal baseline observations tied to the nearby Deep Geological Repository impact assessment, while extending into creative practices like papermaking and youth entrepreneurship.
