'Migrating Monarchs' - Kula Cloth ® Artist Series
Every autumn, millions of monarch butterflies take off on one of the most remarkable journeys in the natural world—flying up to 3,000 miles to reach their winter home in Mexico. Along the way, these tiny adventurers flap, glide, and sometimes hitch a ride on the wind, navigating by the sun and even sensing the Earth’s magnetic field.
Fun fact: a single butterfly weighs less than a paperclip, yet it can soar higher than the trees you hike beneath. Another fun fact: they need nectar pit stops just like we need trail snacks.
This Kula is a reminder that even the smallest wings can carry us across unimaginable distances. May it inspire you to keep going, to trust the path ahead, and to rest when you need to—because every migration is made of tiny, determined steps.
