Private Firefly Eco-Tours
The Kellettville Firefly Farm just happens to have ideal habitats for several species of fireflies. The owners now manage the property as a Firefly Sanctuary. The firefly season is typically mid June through early July if conditions are ideal. Lodging at the farm is available and private Firefly Eco-Tours are included for guests of the KFF during firefly season at a special rate. The 2026 Season limited dates are available for booking now. Please submit a request using this Google Form to book your June 2026 Lodging & Firefly Eco-Tour.
For just a Private Tour with no lodging included please submit a request for a tour date using this Google link. Dates are still available for 2026 and this is a first-come offer. Payment must be received in advance to secure your booking.
10% of tour fees are shared with the PA Firefly Festival organization.
