For couples, our farm offers an intimate elopement experience like no other. Begin your walk across a charming wooden bridge over Shimers Brook and follow the path to a secluded clearing in the woods, where a magical, woodland, ceremony space awaits. Surrounded by trees and the gentle sounds of the brook, it’s a perfect setting for saying “I do” in a quiet, meaningful way.

​

Whether you’re here for family fun, engagement or family photos, or a magical woodland elopement, Shimers Brook Farmstead offers a one-of-a-kind place to slow down, connect, and create lasting memories.
