Butterfly Farm closes
October 14th, 2009The Butterfly Farm closed for business earlier this week, blaming lack of tourists on the island as the main reason for its demise. Rebuilding costs after Hurricane Ivan were also a factor.
The butterflies, which have a lifespan of around 2 weeks, will be allowed to die out and will not be replaced. The gift shop will remain open until the weekend.
The company behind the attraction also operates farms in Aruba, St Martin and St Thomas. All are doing well and will remain open.
