2023 Changes Are Coming!
If you're a fan of our Facebook page, then you've probably seen the post from previous owner, JoAnn, from the end of February where she was able to say her goodbye's to her beautiful farm with all of our followers. JoAnn is most beloved and has an amazing reputation for her stunning gardens, planting and butterfly knowledge, and her generously kind spirit given freely to all of her visitors. However, it was time to pass the baton and enjoy the lifestyle that she has worked so very hard to achieve.

Cindy Sachse, the new owner (and butterfly lover) of the Dahlonega Butterfly Farm, has been oh-so-busy with preparing for the 2023 season.
Taking advantage of the 5.5 acres of property in the North Georgia mountains, she's making it her priority to add even more ways to enjoy all that this space has to offer. Keeping with JoAnn's original vision of gorgeous flora, abundant creatures, and a slower-paced, family-friendly attraction, Cindy has been working tirelessly. Because, not only is she wanting to have the best darn butterfly farm around, she's got BIG things coming. New. Exciting. Eventful.
With the addition of more planters, flowers and seating, updating the conservatory/containment room and caterpillar habitat, partnering with local businesses and vendors, creating new displays and educational materials, providing group tours (and attending meetings, like the one she visited to Orlando to meet the Butterfly Guy!!), and preparing for the new upcoming events that her very first year on the farm is providing, she is in it to win it! (( it= your hearts, of course!))
Whew! That was a lot. And we're so close to opening! In fact....
Opening Day is Less than a Month Away!
