Additional Information

We’ve relocated! You can now find us at our new address, 820 Olowalu Village Rd, right next to Olowalu General Store on your way to Lahaina!

As Hawaii’s most senior butterfly farm and the only one providing private tours within the State, we’re proud to be a certified Monarch Waystation. Our mission involves saving the butterflies through propagation, research, and education. Our walk-in butterfly flight house is the exclusive spot in the Islands to observe live Hawaiian butterflies. Contrary to Mainland butterfly farms, all our butterflies are locally bred and nurtured by hand on our organic farm. We refuse to buy or import butterflies from overseas, ensuring all our butterflies are native to Hawaii.

Butterflies 🦋 - This activity is good for people who wants to learn more about butterfly life cycle as well as Native Hawaiian butterflies. It's a less than hour tour of the farm. After that, you can go to the open market to the side for souvenirs and some restaurant to the side for breakfast or lunch. The beach is a short drive away, too!

Excellent and unique experience - Excellent tour guide who was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We were all able to have butterflies land on our fingers and see them up close drinking from the flowers we were holding. Such a unique and memorable experience!

Great Experience - We weren't quite sure what to expect here, but I love butterflies and have a butterfly garden in my backyard, so we thought it would be fun. Our guide, Laura first explained the life cycle of the butterflies and showed us the butterflies in the little net cages. We also got to gently touch some caterpillars. We then went into one of the butterfly "rooms" where she showed us how to dip our finger in peach syrup and then get the butterfly to stay on our finger. It was fun to be able to hold the butterflies. After that we went into another "room" where we held out flowers and the butterflies came and sat on the flowers. We enjoyed having the butterflies fly around us and land on the flowers. We had a great time here and would definitely go back the next time we are in Maui.
