JERSEY SHORE NATURE
Attracting & Raising
Helping Pollinators While Watching Nature In Action
The Great Spangled Fritillary is one of the most common butterflies found in New Jersey.

Editor's Note: In our last issue (Fall/Holiday 2019), writer Christine Menapace profiled
the migration of and risks to the monarch butterfly population. She also listed plants to
include as essential nectar sources for monarchs and other pollinators. In this issue,
Christine talks about attracting and raising other butterflies native to New Jersey.
