Bridal Testimonies For me, weddings are all about celebrating your new beginnings in life with the people you love most. I am so grateful for the staff at Freedom Farms for providing that experience for us. I was able to customize what I wanted & provide a fun experience for all of my guests without breaking the bank, but also not compromising for a cookie cutter wedding. The food was phenomenal & the atmosphere both lively & comforting - it truly felt like home! I am so happy I can always go back to Freedom Farms for other wonderful events, to remind myself that a little piece of my wedding day is always alive & well. I cannot recommend Freedom Farms enough! -Maggie Kelly Brown, July 2022 Bride “Freedom Farms was the perfect venue for our rustic September wedding. Our cocktail hour included tractor rides through the sunflower fields, cornhole and games outside. The best part of Freedom Farms is the amazing staff that covered every area of our wedding from flowers, catering, desserts, coordination and great recommendations for DJs and housing accommodations for our guests. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our special day" - Mattie Gold, Bride “Freedom Farms is beautiful from top to bottom. The fields of crops, the barns, the lake, and mostly - the people. Amy was open to any and all ideas (within reason of course) to make our fairytale wedding and walked alongside us to be sure those dreams came true. The day of the wedding was no exception. Amy and the staff were accessible to us all day, at any moment we needed them. Catering was right from the farm! Literally a farm to table meal. And WOW, it was amazing. Planning a wedding is stressful enough, but we never anticipated throwing in a pandemic as a curveball. Freedom Farms was our safe haven in a scary and uncertain world. We have no regrets about this decision and cannot wait to return to their regular events on the farm and admire the versatile space we chose to say “I do!” - Julia Moore, Bride “Our Freedom Farms wedding was perfect. Everyone was so kind and helpful. I can’t say enough how wonderful the space and everyone was. We wouldn’t change a thing we did and we’d do it again in a heartbeat!” - Katy Schoff, Bride “We had our wedding reception at Freedom Farms and it was the best day of our lives. The venue is so beautiful and the staff is wonderful. Amy, the event coordinator, was up to help in any way she could and is just a really sweet girl. They are willing to work with you and try to make your visions happen. I got so many compliments that it was the funnest and most beautiful wedding people have gone to. The bartenders that came with the package I chose had great personalities and did a wonderful job. The only vendor they require you to use is their catering, to me that was one last thing I had to worry about figuring out. The food was to die for and I wouldn’t have chosen a different caterer after having our dinner. I could go on and on. If you're looking for a venue for your wedding, check out Freedom Farms. You’ll be sure to fall in love. I wish I could do it all over again!” - Brooke Hunkele, Bride Contact Us First Name Last Name Email How did you hear about us? Write a message Submit Thank you!

Clover Creek Cheese Cellar "Clover Creek Cheese Cellar is the business that allows the Rice family to sustain their small family farm. Started in 2005, the business now markets their farmstead cheese throughout Pennsylvania and the surrounding states. ​ In the decade since they opened, the Rices have continued to raise their herd of Milking Shorthorns, Jerseys, Ayrshires, and crossbred cows on pasture. They bottle some of their grass-fed raw milk to sell on the farm and in several stores and farmers markets throughout Pennsylvania. They turn the rest of their milk into farmstead artisan cheeses. As the years pass, they are continually tweaking their process to make every batch of cheese better than the last so that you can taste the farm fresh flavor from the greener side of the fence."

We believe that enjoying a cup of coffee or tea is one of the greatest—yet simplest—pleasures in life, and we want to help you make the most of it. We also believe that top-quality coffee and tea should benefit not only those drinking it, but those growing, harvesting and processing it. We focus on top-quality, unique and responsibly sourced items so that we can all be confident that while we’re drinking amazing coffee and tea—we are also empowering farmers across the world. Drinking great coffee and helping people—what could be better?" Goat Rodeo Farm & Dairy "It started, as most good stories do, with a goat. And before you know it, there was another goat. And then another. Then, with all those goats, it quickly became about milk. And then, happily cheese. We became students of cheese and met wonderful, generous cheesemakers across the country. The more we learned, the more we wanted to learn. That’s when it became clear that we’d found a calling. And began work on our creamery. By the time the creamery was completed, we had a happy herd of goats and some cheery neighboring cows all delighted to provide what would become the fruits of our labors. Goat Rodeo Cheeses. From fresh chèvre to interesting aged cheeses, we’re creating some of the region’s finest cheeses, from goat milk, cow milk, and a delicious blend of both." Ocho Salsa Ocho Salsa: Local Producer of Gluten Free/ Vegan Fresh Salsa and Gluten Free Spices & Seasoning Blends. Owned and operated by Heather Knepper, she prioritizes using home grown, fresh ingredients and makes her small batch salsa, dips, spice blends and specialty salts. Our main goal? For our products to bring people together for good times! Marburger Farm Dairy "Starting with the purchase of one hundred acres of land in Evans City, PA, Marburger Farm Dairy has been continuously operating in one form or another since 1842. A German immigrant by the name of George Marburger, Sr. first used the land for raising draft horses until his son, Adam, transitioned the 100-acre parcel to dairy production. After about twelve years, Adam and his wife, Georgia, moved the Marburger Farm Dairy operation to its current location. Since then, over three generations of Marburgers have been operating Marburger Farm Dairy successfully. Our business was featured in the "Food Tech" series telecast by the History Channel. ​​ Marburger Farm Dairy's commitment to you is quality, service, and value. We strive to maintain the highest standard of food safety in the US. We ensure our products are all pure dairy products. We have been awarded Safe Food Handlers Certification Level 3." Old State Farms "The Burkett family has been producing pure maple syrup since 2001. The first time we made maple syrup was in a homemade stainless steel pan over an open fire. It started with 20 maple trees on my parent’s farm and has grown to 30 acres of hard maple trees, a full scale sugar house, over 10,000 gallons of storage space for the fresh sap and over 5 miles of plastic tubing. Each spring, three generations of Burketts (Joseph, his father Ed, and our oldest son Jude) work together in tapping, harvesting, and boiling the maple sap. Our desire has been to cultivate a local renewable resource in such a way as to provide for our family and give back what we are able to our local community." The Olive Tap "Whether it's a 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil or Flavor Infused Olive Oil, we focus on providing our customers only the freshest, premium products from around the world. Our oils come from impeccably credentialed, Award-Winning producers worldwide and are tested to meet or exceed U.S. and International Standards. ​ Many of our flavored olive oils are produced using the Agrumato method, which is the process of simultaneously crushing select fruit, herbs, garlic, peppers, etc. with the olives to produce exceptionally flavored olive oils. It is also important to know that our flavor infused olive oils are flavored naturally by each artisan producer and the base olive oils (prior to flavoring) are always 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oils, therefore providing the same, heart-healthy, cancer inhibiting benefits." The Pickled Chef The Pickled Chef is Western Pennsylvania’s number one producer of artisanal, all natural, small batch pickles, pickled vegetables, mustards, jam and jellies, four varieties of raw fermented Kim Chi, eight unique fresh sauerkrauts, Bloody Mary mix, Whiskey Barrel Aged Hot Sauce and new line of fresh dressings.

Pasture Maid Creamery "Our family has been farming the same land continuously since 1867. We proudly pasture our cows, and always have. Our 150 girls, all with names, graze native meadows from early March to late November and through winter their diet mainly consists of organic grass/hay raised here on the farm. For that matter all of the cows feed is raised right here. We also have a closed herd, which means we do not buy cows to maintain our numbers. We usually sell some young heifers off each year, since our cows live three times the average age of an American dairy cow and we just don't have the acreage for all that are born here. By raising all our own feed and having a closed herd we are able to maintain very high quality milk." Speckled Hen Chocolate Company "Speckled Hen Chocolate Company, is Western Pennsylvania’s, newest gourmet chocolate company. Our goal is to make a high quality, intensely flavorful chocolate that can be enjoyed piece by piece, or if you eat chocolate like we do, a box at a time! Owned and operated by Matt and Valerie Cannon, the Speckled Hen is based on 3 essential ideals: quality, uniqueness and customer service. ​ We intend to create some of the most unique chocolate items that you will ever find and if you are in need of a tasty gift, or just want something hand crafted and out of the ordinary, then Speckled Hen Chocolate Company is the place for you! ​ We opened our doors in the spring of 2013 and have been steadily growing ever since. We make all of our hand dipped chocolates in house as well as each of our unique centers. Our first and most famous center is peppermint patty, followed closely by our homemade orange cream!"
