Butterfly Release 2025

The Phelps Health Foundation Butterfly Release Celebration on Saturday, May 17, 2025, is a heartwarming annual event that honors loved ones and celebrates life while raising funds for the Phelps Health Foundation Mission Fund. Held at Huffman's Flowers of the Field Garden Center in St. James, MO, the event brings the community together for a moment of reflection, hope, and remembrance. Attendees participate in a touching ceremony featuring opening remarks, an invocation, and a poem, before a list of honorees is read and Painted Lady butterflies are released into the sky. The proceeds support various Phelps Health initiatives, benefiting patients from birth through hospice care, making the event a meaningful way to support and uplift the community.

Ticket and butterfly sales have concluded for this year's event.
