What a wonderful surprise! We took a wide range of ages of kids from 2 years old to 42 and all had a great time. An educational treasure hunt. I am going to suggest to our local primary school that we should visit as it would be brilliant as a school trip. Bugs, butterflies, spiders, birds, donkeys and even a flea circus it has it all! Thank you to the friendly hosts for a great afternoon

Awesome afternoon had by all ages at Earthlore. Fantastic chance for the kids to get up close and personal with some bugs. Loved the flea circus, donkeys, fruit forest and dress ups. Must do if you're near Owaka

Excellent place. Run by a friendly couple. Inspector insector is very knowledgeable. It was just us there that day and we still got the full tour and experience, plus some more detailed advice on garden insects and plants. The gardens are interesting for adults too.

Had a wonderful time with four children aged 9-12 visiting Earthlore this January. There was plenty for the children to do and we all found the insect displays and habitats very interesting. Highly recommend for a family afternoon out. Also would be a wonderful place for a group of adults who are interested in conservation or gardening to visit.

We loved everything about Earthlore! It was a great experience for our 3 kids when they were, 3 years, 2 years and a baby. We look forward to coming back this year!

Really fun and informative. The wonderful garden and superb bird life are a bonus.

The variety of insects and the knowledge the owners have as to how they fit into the eco-system is truly inspiring.

Fantastic fun! Loved taking my grandsons here... and about time I made another visit. Will book it in this summer!
