WHAT IS A WAYSTATION?

Waystations are gardens that provide shelter, food, and water for Monarch Butterflies. These gardens are important habitats where butterflies can rest and recharge. Growing a Waystation in Ontario is easy, fun, and affordable.

JUST PICTURE IT

Imagine that you’re a Monarch Butterfly, flying across Ontario. It’s a warm summer day, and you’ve been going for hours, but now you’re getting tired and hungry. Oh, and you’re pregnant! You look around but can't find any food or a safe place to rest. How much longer can you keep flying? What happens if you can’t find a Waystation?

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

Canadians are working together to Save the Monarch Butterflies, by planting Waystation Gardens at home and in their communities. Building a Waystation is a great weekend project the whole family can enjoy. You’ll love watching the butterflies, bees, birds, and even hummingbirds come back to visit your Waystation, year after year.
