The Milkweed Mission tracks the amazing year-long path of North America’s main Monarch butterfly population, documenting threats from logging and community conservation challenges in the winter reserves in Michoacán, Mexico, to loss of essential pollinators and milkweeds due to droughts, climate change, and chemical agriculture across the U.S. and into the northern migration range in Canada.

Screens on Sunday, October 23 during Block 8, which begins at 3:30 pm at Reynolds Hall on the Shepherd University Campus.
