Large Group Reservations

The Farmstead welcomes large groups.

In order to have appropriate staffing, we request that groups complete a group reservation form to let us know how many are in your group and your arrival date and time.

Large group reservations are not scheduled or guided tours. Farmstead admission fees apply for all people attending large group reservations.

Forms for Large Groups

The group reservation request form is available beginning in February before the Farmstead opens for the season in April.
