Celebrate Monarch Madness October 4th through the 14th with the award winning
"Kiderpillar School"

The Panhandle Butterfly House’s award winning “Kiderpillar School” program will be offering tours during our Monarch Madness celebration.  We will be open for scheduled tours October 4 thru 7, and October 11 thru 14. Last October we were able to schedule many school groups and we hope to do the same this year. Larger tours may have the benefit of three separate lessons covering the life cycle and habits of butterflies, the journey of the monarch simulated in the gardens, and the ecosystem of the estuary and a freshwater pond. A combined group of UF/Extension Master Gardeners and community volunteers teaches the program.  Tours will also be available after school hours to benefit youth programs.  We are proud to say that our curriculum meets the Sunshine State Standards for Florida. Please contact us to schedule a tour or call the Santa Rosa County Extension Office at 850-623-3868.
