About the Butterfly Farm:
The Butterfly farm is a unique project here on Bonaire and may rejoice itself with an increasing number of visitors since it’s opening in 2007. This section of the estate also has a self supporting energy supply by means of solar panel and wind energy. The entire estate has a generator as back up energy supply. The Butterfly Farm consists of a visitor center with shop and bathrooms and a large butterfly greenhouse. By means of wide foot paths visitors can stroll through the greenhouse and enjoy a large variety of local and exotic butterflies from up close. In the middle of the greenhouse one finds a pond with Koy carps. The farm also has a separate space, the “pupa cupboard”, where the caterpillars can pupate and come out as beautiful butterflies. Furthermore an additional greenhouse where one grows the plants for the butterfly greenhouse. All ‘n all a unique project, in many ways self supporting and a challenge for anyone who cares about nature and is eager and willing to make a living out of it.
