Host your next event on our Farm! Perfect for any celebration including birthdays, bridal or baby showers, graduation parties, church groups, team parties, and family gatherings.
Consider hosting your next small group gathering at one of our Spring Festivals! We have two great locations available: the Party Barn and our new Party Pavilion, both located in the Farm Park. These spots are conveniently close to all the Festival activities, while also providing a private and reserved area for you to spend time with your guests.
There are two available time slots for your reservation, each lasting for three hours. You’re welcome to enjoy the Festival activities before or after your reservation time, but please make sure to clear the party space by the end of your reservation. Please plan accordingly!
Spring Festival Party Reservation Times:
10:00 am – 1:00 pm
2:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Please note that an admission ticket to the Festival is required for all guests, including hosts/hostesses and guests of honor. The admission ticket is not included in your party reservation and must be purchased separately for each guest. You will receive information about purchasing admission tickets in the confirmation email after booking your party. Please ensure that all your guests have an admission ticket ($12/person) before arriving at the Festival. You may purchase tickets for your guests and share them with them prior to the party.
Food Policy (New for 2024):
Please note that Butler’s Orchard does not allow guests to bring in outside food or beverages during party reservations, except for cakes and cupcakes. However, The Farmer’s Porch, located within the Farm Park, offers a range of freshly made food packages and drink options for your party at Butler’s Orchard. We highly recommend that you take advantage of the convenience and quality of options available to ensure that your party is a memorable success at the Farm. We deliver right to your party!

Thank you for your cooperation and consideration of this policy.
