TOGETHER WE CAN SAVE THE MONARCH BUTTERFLY

Since the 1990s, the Monarch Butterfly population has declined by over 90%. Other pollinator insects that are critical to the production of our own food sources also have shrinking populations. Orange Environment and the Warwick Valley Winery and Distillery are holding the Bruce Springsteen Tribute Festival and 1st Annual Pollinator Festival in support of the Hudson Valley Pollinator Project — a new initiative to save our pollinators. Join us to support this great cause! There will be something for everyone!

Rock On ~ Dream On and Save the Monarch!”

*Listen to live music featuring the hits of Bruce Springsteen and the Jersey Shore performed by Jonny Rosch and friends: Bios and List of All Musicians
*Kids activities include face painting with their favorite pollinator and decorating rocks for your garden.
*Learn about pollinators and buy their favorite food plants at the Native Plant Sale.
*The Butterfly Taco Station will feature monarch butterfly inspired tacos — No Butterflies will be harmed or eaten!
