Discover the Key West Parrot Sanctuary & Conservation Haven
Nancy Forrester’s Secret Garden in Key West, Florida, stands as a premier Key West parrot sanctuary dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of orphaned parrots—with a special emphasis on macaws. Located at 518 Elizabeth Street in Old Town Key West, the sanctuary offers an immersive conservation experience where ethical wildlife care meets environmental advocacy.
Open daily from 10 AM to 3 PM, the garden features engaging volunteer-led storytelling sessions, interactive tours, and the celebrated “Parrots Love Music” program, which uses live music to enrich the social lives of rescued birds. Founded by environmental artist Nancy Forrester, the secret garden highlights the importance of adopting pet birds while championing broader Key West conservation efforts.
Accessible and family-friendly, the sanctuary welcomes visitors with affordable admission at $10 for adults and $5 for children (ages 5 to 11). This vibrant haven not only educates guests about orphaned parrot rescue but also inspires a deeper appreciation for sustainable wildlife care and environmental stewardship.
