If you have more than 1,500 sq. ft. to devote to milkweed and you run a business, an inn, a woodlot or a hobby farm, please fill out this form for a business partnership.
Do you have a piece of land, small or large, that you would like to put to good use? Look no further. Our milkweed planting service lets you beautify a plot of land, create habitat for threatened pollinators like the monarch butterfly, and earn a recurring side income, year after year.
Here is how it works:
- We come to you.
- We densely plant the most suitable native milkweed species (syriaca, incarnata, tuberosa or exaltata). Included in the price.
- We prepare the site to give the plants the best chance of long-term survival.
- We buy your pods (the follicles that hold the seeds and floss) every fall, either picked by you or harvested mechanically by Lasclay.
This project is a direct extension of our mission: helping monarch butterfly populations recover by making milkweed farming, and the plant's presence in Canada, sustainable over the long term.
Our milkweed garden and field planting service suits individuals, schools, businesses, municipalities, organizations, hobby farms, beekeepers and market gardeners who want an outdoor space that is beautiful, educational, profitable and good for biodiversity. Milkweeds are native plants known for their central role in the monarch's ecosystem and for supporting many other pollinators as well.
By choosing Lasclay, you draw on expertise rooted in putting milkweed to good use and in developing concrete initiatives to expand its presence across the landscape. Our milkweed plantings aim to create living spaces that fit the site, while raising awareness of the importance of protecting monarch habitat and generating income for landowners.

Planting and care
Responsible and cruelty-free
Petroleum, the basis of synthetic insulation, destroys ecosystems, and the down industry makes animals suffer needlessly. Milkweed, grown and processed in Canada, is eco-friendly, plant-based and outperforms its competitors.
Respectful of monarchs
By buying a Lasclay product, you directly help monarchs, a species threatened with extinction. An abundance of milkweed gives them precious breeding grounds before their great migration.
