Monarch ButterflyField Notes

Angangeuo, Michoacan, Mexico

German Medina and Estela Romero live beside the monarch sanctuaries, deep in central Mexico. They coordinate the Journey North program in schools throughout the region.

While the monarchs are in Mexico, German uses this truck to take visitors up the mountain to see the monarchs. He carries Symbolic Butterflies to children in the same truck.
Estela, shown here with her daughter, is our translator. We're so lucky to have her help, because nobody else with Journey North can speak Spanish!
