Part of what brings a garden to life is the color and movement of Lepidoptera. Inviting them into your yard means providing the habitat and resources they need. Join Extension Master Gardener and Master Naturalist Alyssa Ford Morel as she discusses the etiquette of hosting these beautiful creatures in your garden.
