The Pennsylvania Butterfly Preserve has been approved as a 501 C-3 tax exempt non-profit corporation.  Its mission is to educate adults and children about butterflies by creating an outdoor butterfly preserve (sanctuary), a parcel of land, approximately 20-acres, in Pennsylvania, where butterflies could be seen in large quantities in a controlled habitat, devoid of trees.  The organization hopes to lease or purchase land in Berks, Montgomery or Chester County.  A large variety of nectar plants and host plants (the plants butterflies lay eggs on to complete their life cycle) will be prevalent in the butterfly preserve.  The facility will be open daily to the public.      Conservation will be emphasized at the facility, and scientific experiments will be done to learn how to increase butterfly populations that are near extinction in Pennsylvania.  Monarch tagging will be done every fall in order to track the Monarch migration to Mexico.  The tagging will be done in conjunction with MonarchWatch, a non-profit organization, based at the University of Kansas.       Volunteers may contact the organization by calling Ron Richael at 610.323.3805 or through Kay Rutter via e-mail at pabuterfly@yahoo.com (that's one "t").       Tax deductible donations may be made to the PA Butterfly Preserve in care of Jeff Degler, 101 Lucinda Lane, Wyomissing, PA   19610.    YOUR DONATION OF FUNDS AND / OR ENERGY WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!   Thanks for visiting our website.
