Dahlonega Butterfly Farm, which is owned and operated by Goldenburg, contains an 800-square-foot butterfly conservatory, as well as an acre of garden for native butterflies. The property first opened to the public in June 2019.
With the return of warm weather, Goldenburg has been hard at work growing plants to attract butterflies, as well as prepping the conservatory’s tropical plants for its soon-to-arrive fluttering residents. She plans to reopen the farm to visitors on Saturday, April 24.
During the off-season from November through mid-April, Goldenburg said she has kept her business afloat with landscaping classes and butterfly gardening lessons.
