Flutter down to the Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens and immerse yourself in the winged world of butterflies right here in Buffalo! Step into our brand-new Tropical Orchard, which will be home to hundreds of live butterflies from June 7 to August 3.

Get up close and personal with our family of koi fish with this unique Gardens Exclusive! Enjoy early access to the Botanical Gardens before we open to the public with a special learning experience that’s fun for all ages. Each participant receives a cup of koi fish food and time to help feed our fishy friends!

Escape to the wild for an adventure you won't soon forget. Take an open-air safari bus tour or self-drive through our 63 acre park for an up close and personal experience to view and feed exotic animals such as camels, zebra, llama, emu, bison, and many more. Leave time to walk among, pet, and feed smaller, friendly animals in our Small Animal Adventure. Order tickets online. Purchase a COMBO (park tour with SAA) for best value. Be sure to visit our gift store, grill, and Bessie's Creamery, too!

Join us for our Story Time on the Farm! This week we will be reading "Rosie and Tippy, A Day on the Farm". A book written by us, illustrated by local Nick Cherre. Spend a day on the farm with our farm dogs as they get into mischief and find their purpose! Readings at 10:30am and Noon, followed by a simple craft. Admission or a Season Pass is required to attend, no additional cost for the stories and craft.
