The farm\u2019s work centers on raising butterflies from egg to adult, protecting populations that are under pressure in the wild. Tours share how guests can support pollinator health at home through thoughtful planting and pesticide-free practices.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Types of Butterflies<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Visitors will see several butterfly species in various stages of life. Monarchs are the stars, but the farm also raises painted ladies and other Hawaiian butterflies. The tour walks through each step of the life cycle (egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, and adult) so you can sometimes watch the full transformation unfold up close.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Tour Experience<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The interactive tour lasts about 45 minutes and is small in size, making it personal and hands-on (literally.) Guests are guided through the butterfly flight house, where butterflies often land softly on visitors. You\u2019ll also get the chance to see caterpillars munching on host plants, watch chrysalises, and hear stories from the guides about butterfly behavior and survival.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Location<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The farm is located in Olowalu, just outside of Lahaina on Maui\u2019s west side. Its central location makes it an easy stop from both Ka&#8217;anapali and Kihei, and it\u2019s a nice add-on to a day trip along the coast. Located at 820 Olowalu Village Road, directly between the Olowalu General Store and the farmers market on the only road to Lahaina. Just look for the little farm stand behind the gate and our big white butterfly van with the butterfly on the side.
