A continuing initiative of the Innisfail-based Australian Insect Farm is to deliver insect education in an inviting interactive package, while achieving the goals of increasing insect awareness and appreciation. The Australian Insect Farm has developed to satisfy scientific and public demand for insect specimens for use in research, education, natural history documentaries, personal interests and various other applications. The farm operates under recognized and approved ecologically sustainable principles and practices. The Australian Insect Farm is essentially a conservation-based approach to land management through sustainable development.
