October 2019

Field Trip - Butterfly Rainforest


Florida Museum of Natural History
University of Florida Cultural Plaza
3215 Hull Road
Gainesville, FL 32611-2710

I'm thinking the best day would be Friday, October 11th. They have a butterfly plant sale that weekend, which would go nicely with the exhibit. We can do a guided tour, or go without a guide. I think it would be best to go guided, we'll all get more out of it. Then each family can decide after if they would like to pay for any additional special exhibits, or explore the museum. 

Museum admission is free, donations suggested. Each special exhibit has its own price.

Butterfly exhibit: $6.50/student, teachers free, 1 chaperone free per 10 students, $11/additional adult
(I'm waiting to hear back, I emailed to confirm pricing for homeschool parents/teachers.)

The tour begins at 11:15, the museum opens at 10. So, if each family arrives anytime between 10 and 11, they can explore a bit on their own and then do the butterfly tour as a group. 


They have nice areas outside if we want to pack lunches for after the tour.
