Founded in July of 1995, the Butterfly Pavilion combines science education with hands-on fun to teach visitors about invertebrates, science and conservation. It is the first stand-alone non-profit insect zoo in the nation and consists of a 30,000 sq ft facility on 11 acres. There are interactive exhibits geared primarily towards families with kids ages 2 to 12 years old, but people of all ages will enjoy the beauty and wonder of this tropical conservatory filled with 1200 free-flying butterflies imported from around the world. The interacting and viewing of the live invertebrates can be an eye-opening experience and one that is both life changing and unique.
