A child is like a butterfly in the wind. Some can fly higher than others

But each one flies the best it can. Why compare one against the other?

Each one is different! Each one is special! Each one is beautiful!

Special Occasion Releases:


The butterfly has long been a symbol of freedom, love, or new beginnings. What was once a caterpillar makes its transformation into a beautiful butterfly. This is a reminder that we too can make changes in life that will take us to greater heights.


Releasing a butterfly can be a very reflective, uplifting experience.
 

We have a variety of poems in which you can choose to suit your personal celebration.

 

Gardening Consults & Workshops

 

Butterflies are not just a thing of beauty, but are an important part of our eco-system. We can help nurture butterfly populations.
