Private Events

Looking for a special place for your next big occasion?

The farm is a big place and we have two banquet facilities — the 1880s Packing Shed and the Colonial Tavern — but we can also host outdoor events for up to 1200 guests.  We’re the perfect place to celebrate a birthday, a rehearsal dinner, an anniversary, a retirement, or just about any occasion you can name.  Let’s get started!

Colonial Tavern

Our 18th Century Style Tavern is the perfect place for your next special occasion.  Built from New Hampshire white pine and featuring an over-sized roaring fire place, this post-n-beam space is both comforting and intimate.  Our servers and hosts are dressed in authentic 18th century attire, and you can add live music and living history activities to your celebration.  This space can offer seating for up to 80 people, with space for more outside during the summer.
