The Food
We want our food to be one of the centerpieces of your event.
We work closely with you in creating a seasonal menu based around what we have available
on the farm during the time of year surrounding your wedding.
Any ingredients that can't be sourced from the
farm directly (meat and fish for example) will always be sourced from the
highest quality purveyors, locally and organically if possible.
Menus & Dining Format
The pricing for each dinner format also includes passed appetizers and hors d'oeuvres during the cocktail hour portion of the wedding.

specific brands outside of our normal stock, but this may affect your package pricing.
