We are happy to announce the new date for the Monarch Butterfly Festival!
We will be holding the Festival on Saturday, April 5, 2025. To add to the good news, this event will be held in conjunction with the Dade City Garden Club's NGC Small Standard Flower Show, "Blooms & Bees--The Buzz in the Garden," enlarging even more the potential audience for our special event. All other details including the location, time and the Jolley Trolley remain the same.
Thanks to all of you who wished us good luck as Hurricane Milton had other plans for us and our event and offered your continued support. Know we are excited about the potential the event in the spring presents and will keep you up to date as plans progress.
Thanks for your understanding!
The Dade City Garden Club and The City of Dade City are proud to present the Monarch Butterfly Festival in our newly renovated Touchton Park, with festivities flowing out into the gardens of the Dade City Garden Club! We will have an extraordinary Plant Sale featuring Native Plants often so hard to find, a Kids’ Zone, entertainment, educational exhibits and an eclectic market that will satisfy any shopper.
We are no longer accepting applications but have a wait list. To be added to the waitlist, please email a few photos of your products and display to
The Jolley Trolley will be back, special thanks to the Community Foundation Tampa Bay! The ongoing theme highlighted throughout the day is everyone can make a difference! Municipalities, community groups and even individuals can help save the Monarchs by taking a few simples steps. Through our collective efforts, our community can help all pollinators, improve our environment, and make Dade City a better place to live, play and work.
Save the Date and watch as we add the schedule for the day.
