Immerse yourself in our delightful farm world. Events at our farm are meaningful, beautiful, fun and delicious! Each event, from luncheons to tastings to children's programs, is an adventure in celebration of the season and a joyful learning about foods, menus and our wholesome farm life.
Each of our programs is filled with surprises - everything from a new fruit being introduced or an heirloom recipe tried or a lively floral demonstration or a garden walk.

We hope to inspire you with the exceptional experience of life at the country table!
