I grew up in a small town called Poultney, Vermont. Growing up in VT played a big part in choosing our farmhouse and barns. This property with all its beauty and charm pulled at my heartstrings the moment I saw it. I truly believed it was where we were meant to be. I absolutely love sharing our property with couples to help create their dream wedding. I share our home with Tim, my son Thor, 2 Saint Bernards, Idgie and Gus, a Bernese Mountain dog called Monty, and a cat named Baby Kitty. We thoroughly enjoy the Adirondacks and all they have to offer. We love to ski, take hikes, and just take in all the natural beauty around us. We are blessed to be able to call this home.
I have a deep passion for antiquing and gardening which I acquired from my mom. I grew up being taught that hard work has rewards. It's safe to say I get a great satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment with my gardens. Our venue is where I celebrate all things I love and I can share my fondness for flowers, barns, and the great outdoors.
