Construction on our new entomology lab has started! Please be aware there may be loud noises in the conservatory. Those with auditory sensitivities may want to come on the weekends when construction is not taking place.
To continue efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19, the Butterfly House has implemented additional health and safety protocols. The safety of the visitors, volunteers and staff is our top priority.
