River Partners made the front page of the Chico Enterprise-Record, celebrating the comeback of monarchs and the success of our pollinator habitat restoration.
“[Kim’s] breathing easier now. River Partners, the habitat restoration firm where she works, planted pollinator-friendly plants — notably, milkweed, on which monarchs feed — on 595 acres across eight sites statewide, including the Oroville Wildlife Area and Upper Butte Basin Wildlife Area. Beyond that project, funded by a $1.2 million grant from the California Wildlife Conservation Board, River Partners started adding milkweed to other restorations, such as Bidwell-Sacramento River State Park west of Chico.”
