With funding from MBF, the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve printed three large signs informing visitors to the butterfly colonies that the area that they are visiting is under restoration. These signs were placed in strategic areas in Sierra Chincua that were damaged by a storm in March, 2016 and where the Reserve is carrying out recovery and restoration work. Among the activities they are performing are reforestation, soil retention and perimeter fencing aimed at protecting the seedlings that were planted with the support of several institutions, ejidos and communities.
