The festival brings together more than 20 nonprofit organizations and educational partners to educate the community about the importance of the monarch and other pollinators. In celebration of the event, local landscape architecture firm MP Studio is transforming the San Antonio Zoo train into a monarch butterfly caterpillar for the month of October.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to go on a birding tour of the park and butterfly bike rides with the Austin Bike Zoo. There will also be adoption events — free trees from the San Antonio Parks Department and pollinator-friendly native plants provided by the San Antonio Water System. , that offers kids a hands-on experience about butterfly development and migration.
