Eastern Monarch Butterfly Farm

Eastern Monarch Butterfly Farm Monarch Butterfly Recovery and Habitat Conservation . We are not open for public access at this time--see below for details. Simply put....." "Got Milkweed?"
(1)

Located in Clarence, NY, we are devoted to restoring the depleting Monarch Butterfly population and its native habitat to the WNY region, and to the Eastern United States at-large. As WNY's leading authority on this iconic Lepidoptera for over 20 years, we also educate the community on gardening with native plants to attract all native and beneficial pollinators. Come and see us at the CLARENCE HO

LLOW FARMERS MARKET on Saturdays May-October (Main Street, Clarence, NY). When available, we bring a tent to the market with our butterflies for you to interact with and enjoy! We also are at events and festivals throughout WNY and do presentations for garden clubs, schools, scientific and cultural organizations and the like. We are a self funded organization and all proceeds from plant sales, butterfly releases, presentations, and pollinator garden consultations, are applied to our Monarch Butterfly Recovery program. Our goal at Eastern Monarch Butterfly Farm is not growing a business, but rather promoting a movement across WNY and the planet. A CLEAN, HEALTHY, BIODIVERSE ENVIRONMENT...IS THE FONDATION OF HUMAN CIVILIZATION ". We will post to this page... events, presentations and locations where we will be at throughout the year. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! Eastern Monarch Butterfly Farm

Feel free to call, email or message us here if you would like to book us for an event or presentation. We would love to help you learn more about butterflies and planting sustainable native pollinator landscapes!

We have canceled our annual Environmental Conservation Day
and Butterfly Release scheduled for July 11th, 2026 at the Elmwood Village Farmers Market.
We are no longer in partnership with GBN, Garden Buffalo Niagara.
We will be bringing our original Environmental Conservation Day back in August and working with the Elwood Village Farmers Market. They have been very supportive of our efforts to promote a sustainable environment for future generations.
Environmental Conservation Day and Butterfly Release was a concept we started over 15 years ago in Clarence NY. We wanted to bring folks together for a free and enjoyable event, unencumbered by sponsors and bureaucracy.
We will have a few events this year and will post them to our page.
This year's Conservation Day put on by GBN, is NOT affiliated with Eastern Monarch Butterfly Farms Environmental Conservation Day, and the list of last year's participants , if still listed, may, or may not, be there this year, we will not be participating.

There will NOT BE a Monarch Butterfly release on July 11th by Eastern Monarch Butterfly Farm.

Eastern Monarch Butterfly Farm will reach out to the wonderful environmental organizations we have invited in the past to participate in our upcoming events. 👍🦋

This weekend, Saturday 6/13 we will be at the Clarence Hollow farmers market 8AM to 1pm.

Don't forget about the tiny pollinators like this hoverfly.
There are hundreds of beneficial little pollinators that don't get enough credit for their contributions to the ecosystem.

Come out tomorrow and join Eastern Monarch Butterfly Farm at the Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge for the annual open house.

Also, join the resistance movement against the proposed STAMP DATA CENTER, neighboring the pristine Iroquois National Wildlife Refuge. This is a terrible location for such an invasive, gigantic, and unnecessary project that will affect Wildlife and the citizens of Alabama, NY, and Niagara County.
SPEAK UP FOR NATURE AND THE ENVIRONMENT. 🦋💯🇺🇸🌏⚖️......IF WE DONT...WHO WILL? DO IT FOR YOUR CHILDREN'S FUTURE!!
11:30am corner of routes 77 and 63 , by the Alabama Hotel.

HAPPY EARTH DAY....
RESIST FASCIST... Trump is destroying our environment, our planet, and 250 years of DEMOCRACY.
Look for the truth.... Religion is a belief, with unvariable facts and not reality.
Science is real, climate change is real, war is real, trump/gop defending pedophiles is real . Just dig for the truth....some won't, because if they did, they would need to change their beliefs.
Live with TRUTH AND VERIFIABLE FACTS.
Beliefs are fine until they blind you from the truth.
