What can we learn from our incredible little monarch butterfly? 🦋

The butterfly’s migration from Canada to Mexico is long and time consuming-we can compare the journey to our life. Not only that, in Ojibwe culture the butterfly has a spirit-Memengwaa. Cast your thoughts to reach out to Memengwaa. The butterfly silently listens and its spirit travels along, carrying your wishes and dreams.

“Memengwaa: the Monarch Butterfly” is a poetic non-fiction book that blends lifecycle facts with Ojibwe beliefs about the monarch butterfly. Join us at MacGregor Point Provincial Park for an event hosted by the author Dorothy Ladd.
