Our butterflies production


Our butterflies production

As I established the first butterfly breeding farm in Ecuador 25 years ago and passionate for butterflies since childhood, I wanted to breed my own butterflies. This is the best way for our visitors to observe hundreds of butterflies, flying freely in a greenhouse, whatever the climatic conditions. As well as this visit, I also organize hikes in the forest to observe butterflies in the wild.
