New Butterfly-Friendly Additions to Gateway Park

There is a little more movement and color to Gateway Park with the new addition of butterfly-friendly plants to the garden. The butterfly-friendly refreshment was donated by Mayor Karen Chasez, reinvesting her Mayor’s salary back into the community. The Mayor also oversaw the installation, completed on July 12, 2022.

The new plants will attract and support over 20 different species of butterflies through their host plants and nectar sources.

Within the first 24 hours of the new butterfly-friendly additions, residents and visitors have identified many new “guests” in the garden including Queen Butterflies, Zebra Butterflies, Monarchs, Yellow Swallowtails, and even a moth.

Stop by and see what kinds of butterflies YOU can spot!
