My co-owner, Jim, is my longtime bestie-- and the Will to my Grace ;) We decided to team up and open a venue together!
Owning this property was our dream, and we have put thought and care into every detail. We’re personally invested in making each event a smashing success, and we embrace every couple as new members of the Black Walnut Farm family.
We’re not a big corporation or ‘wedding factory’. Genuine hospitality is at the core of everything we do; we will work with you and your vendors to ensure you feel at home here with our highly personalized, inclusive, warm service. We love to have fun and our couple become like family to us too! We can't wait to meet you.
