I am looking for a source of milkweed to feed a large number of Monarch caterpillars I'm fostering.

If anyone knows of a location where I might seek permission to harvest some of the leaves to feed my Monarch Caterpillars, please email me at:

mleek@sbcglobal.net

I really need some help as I'm quickly running out of food for them. I've bought up all the nursery stock I can find so a source of native common milkweed (or any type of milkweed) is needed quickly.

My thanks for your time.

Mary

Thank you so much for this link but I'm afraid I need more plants than I could afford to have overnighted from West Virginia. I've already spent over $100 trying to feed these little gluttons. I had no idea they could eat so much so quickly!

I'm going out now to drive the side roads to see if I can find some growing along the road. You may be sure I will grow plenty next year but that won't help me right now.

Thank you for taking the time to reply.
