The film features naturalist Sam Jaffe from The Caterpillar Lab, entomologist Doug Tallamy of “Bringing Nature Home”, and entomologist David Wagner. Also featured is Toronto gardener Amanda McConnell, who demonstrates how private and public spaces can become thriving caterpillar habitats. Her work shows how habitat restoration can begin in backyards, back lanes, community spaces, and city parks.
