Insider tip
Wear bright colors to attract butterflies as they may land right on you! For the best photos, arrive early in the morning when butterflies are most active and the light is soft.

The Butterfly Farm is not only about butterflies. It’s a peaceful retreat with koi ponds, vibrant flowers, and shaded areas perfect for relaxing.
