Space

The
Bankfront Barn & Market...Our old-fashioned gambrel, bankfront
barn provides a beautiful space for events. General seating - 140;
Dinner/Dance - 100. Of course, there is enough room around the
entire farmstead for larger groups if casual, depending on what
type of event you would like to have. Space is 32x40. Under the
barn is our market sales area from August 10 until November 10.
BUT - The rest of the year, this space holds up to 50 guests for a
meal type event and can be heated or cooled to make an event more
enjoyable.

seating - 140; Dinner/Dance - 100. Walls are already decorated
with giant farm equipment logos. Space is 45x30

and benches are provided in each space. Other items can be
brought to the farm.

Fees
-
Depends
upon type of event, time of the year and staff needed for us to
assist.
-
We
can design a package where the host pays for tickets, or a package
where guests are asked to pay for all or part of the events in
which they participate. (Money needs to be collected by host for
discounted rate.) Some parents in the past have paid for the
hayride OR corn maze and ask quests to bring money for the other
ag-tivity.
