Graham Creek Nature Preserve’s Butterfly Conservatory will be the newest edition to the ongoing educational opportunities offered by the Graham Creek Nature Preserve. Once completed, the conservatory will provide an additional exhibit for school field trips and guided tours alike to learn about Alabama’s native butterflies. Not only will the conservatory present the opportunity for students to experience each stage in the butterfly’s lifecycle, but it also provides a safe haven for Alabama’s official insect, the Monarch. Graham Creek Nature Preserve’s Butterfly Conservatory fulfills our core mission of conservation and preservation and provides new educational opportunities to our citizens.
