Join Bee City USA-Asheville to CELEBRATE the launch of the Asheville Butterfly Trail and see butterflies at a human scale! The Eastern Tiger Swallowtail is just the first of 15 or so butterflies to be strategically located around Asheville and Buncombe County. The second, a Gulf Fritillary, is already in place at Reems Creek Nursery.

Throughout human history, butterflies have represented hope, change and rebirth. We write poems about them and sometimes even release them at weddings! But butterflies also help us learn about biodiversity, pollination ecology, sustainability, metamorphosis and co-evolution. The butterflies featured on the Asheville Butterfly Trail are native to Western North Carolina and each offers a lesson. 

This Trail would not have been possible without the generous support of donors, researchers, photographers, and designers. We are grateful to each of them!
