Monarch Butterfly Habitat
Thank you for your interest in the City of Dana Point's Monarch Butterfly Habitat Program!
The City has been working with volunteer Habitat Helpers and Habitat Ambassadors to expand and add native plants to City of Dana Point parks for Monarch Butterflies and native pollinators. These habitats are essential for supporting a declining Monarch Butterfly population and we need your help to create and maintain them! The City of Dana Point welcomes all volunteers to sign up at our various habitat sites for our 2026 Habitat Helper Season here:
