Antioch Township monarch way station By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT

There is an official monarch way station behind the Antioch Township/District 34 building. Antioch Garden Club members became aware of the plight of monarch butterflies. Native habitat is shrinking and in some cases, disappearing. Poor air quality, over mowing, agricultural practices and the use of pesticides make it harder for these butterflies to find good milkweed, the only plant it will lay eggs. All kinds of milkweed are good for the monarch caterpillars including common, swamp and butterfly weed. When the butterfly emerges from the chrysalis, or ecloses, there are certain nectar or food plants it needs. These include Joe Pye Weed, blanket flower, summer phlox and blazing star. Garden Club members Joanne Dungenske and Joyce Kufalk spearheaded the Garden Club’s monarch initiative and the Antioch Township board agreed to dedicate a plot for a way station. Rich Falk and Danny Dugenske presented a proposal to the Antioch Lion’s Club for $1,000 for seeds and soil. The Club came up with $2,000 In a recent interview, Joyce said, “Tom got it done. He unloaded 10 bags of dirt, helped dig the border and Sheila fed the troops. Another member, Holly Markwart Swehla, was a huge help too. In fact, she spent a lot of time weeding the garden.”
