Here at The Butterfly Garden we offer a curriculum based program complete with worksheets that introduces students of any age and brings them in contact with something that is normally out of reach. Included in your visit is an introductory speech into the life cycle of the butterfly. We explain how we work with them and are happy to answer all your interesting questions.

The butterfly house is an ideal experience for sunny and rainy days.
Open 7 days from 10 am until 4pm.
Give us a call and ask for our school pack which includes work sheets for different age groups and an out door action plan.
