Welcome to JMZ Butterfly Farm — Where Transformation Takes Flight
What started as a simple backyard tent and a love for butterflies has grown into something truly magical. We were captivated by their journey—from tiny caterpillars to vibrant butterflies—and inspired by the quiet strength in their transformation.
Without a storefront or a plan, we followed our passion. From building our first greenhouse to relocating to York, SC, we’ve grown alongside the butterflies we care for. In April 2023, everything changed—word spread, and our dream took flight.
Today, JMZ is a place where Monarchs and other native species thrive. We offer live butterfly releases, pollinator education, and a front-row seat to the wonder of metamorphosis.
To us, butterflies are more than beautiful—they’re proof that patience leads to growth, and change brings something extraordinary.
From our family to yours, welcome to JMZ. 🦋
