If you are comparing butterfly prices and services offered, we have compiled a list of questions we feel you should consider asking any butterfly farmer before entrusting such an important part of your special event to their company.

We strongly disagree, as long as Federal and State regulations are observed. To read more about this controversy, please click here. To ensure butterflies are available for your event, we strongly urge you to place your order at least 30 days in advance, especially during the June-August timeframe. We can accept payment via check, money order, MasterCard, or Visa. Our butterflies are carefully hand-raised on our Release of Wings Butterfly Farms.
