The Farm at Frog Hollow is an event venue with a difference. Architecturally, the barn is referred to as a “monitor” style, and its distinctive look was developed in the 1890s. Remember, that before weddings took over, barns were first and foremost a dwelling for livestock and a repository for hay and grain, and the monitor design created optimal flow of air and light, better both for the animals and their feed. So, how does that translate into spaces for 21st century events? Frog Hollow is comfortable and cozy, intimate when it needs to be. The Farm at Frog Hollow lends itself seamlessly to a myriad of events, from weddings to parties, from showers to concerts. The barn is warm and inviting for small gatherings, but spacious expansive enough for groups up to 250. High-tech capabilities expand the possibilities, the new tented patio welcomes even larger guest lists, and a professional kitchen is perfect for staging. Just imagine of all the things you can do
