Description
We are Pete Espinosa-Michel and Sandi Douglas-Michel, sole proprietors of Douglas-Michel Butterfly Plants, a small business that is dedicated to providing quality plants that attract butterflies; and to educating the public about the challenges presented in preserving the environment for butterflies.
We have not always known about butterflies. In 1991 we moved to Aromas, California, from Silicon Valley. My wife, Sandi Douglas, works as a social worker for the Housing Authority of the County of Santa Clara, and having a place in the country was a good way to unwind from the stresses of working in Silicon Valley. Sandi's passion is gardening and anything associated with plants.
I, on the other hand, did not have much of an interest in plants, but I liked being outdoors and working the land with my tractor. I worked at San Jose State University, and it was always good to come home and work with my hands. Whenever I went to pick up Sandi at work, I would talk to one of her staff, Connie Diaz, who has a passion for butterflies. Her passion was infectious; and she soon had us seeking out their winter natural habitats. Pacific Grove, Pismo Beach and Natural Bridges State Park are three such sites where Monarchs spend the winter, and we were hooked.
