About

Hartman’s Herb Farm is a wedding and event venue in Barre, Massachusetts. This small family farm sits on 23 acres and is ran by Lynn Hartman and her daughter, Carissa. Lynn and her husband Peter began potting plants they found on this property they purchased in 1975. Her plants were in high demand so Lynn and Peter perfected their growing technique and added four greenhouses to the property. They have a wide variety of herbs, flowers, vegetables and perennials. As their business grew, so did their services.

Facilities and Capacity
Hartman’s Herb farm has four greenhouses, a gift shop filled with locally made items and dried flowers from their farm, a classroom for teaching the community how to craft arrangements, and a dining room to host events. The dining room is a large open space that features wood floors, arches, exposed beams, high ceilings and large windows. Off the dining room french doors open to a small covered patio for additional seating. The dining room can accommodate 200 guests. The grounds of the farm can be used for outdoor ceremonies.

Services Offered
The event staff are your wedding planners. They work with you closely to discuss every detail to make your day flawless. They offer accommodations, rental items, catering and bar services, wedding cakes and desserts and floral arrangements. Hartman’s offers four overnight guest rooms for the bride and groom and a small number of guests. The rooms can also be used as a bridal suite. They offer white chair covers, burlap bows, colored chair bows with white chair covers, white chiavari chairs and gold chiavari chairs.

Cuisine
Hartman’s Herb Farm offers catering and bar services for all your events. No outside catering or alcohol is permitted at events. Their bar can be used as a cash or open bar and only serves beer and wine. They recommend you choose one red wine and one white wine and their wait staff will serve both during your cocktail hour. Their culinary team uses the freshest ingredients when preparing your menus. They assist you through the process and make recommendations on delicious food and drink pairings. They can accommodate food allergies.

A Warm, Charming, and Memorable Venue

Hartman’s Herb Farm was the perfect rustic and country venue for our wedding. The natural scenery and beautiful surroundings made everything feel so heartfelt. Carissa and Lynn were wonderfully warm and hospitable, making us feel right at home—like we were at a family estate rather than a commercial venue. The charming, inviting atmosphere made our day truly special.

Spring wedding

Hartmans herb farm is a beautiful venue, Carissa was very easy to communicate with and we had a perfect wedding day! The food is excellent and we loved our cake. We also loved staying at the Inn for the weekend, we were able to set up on Friday and pack everything up on Sunday, Saturday felt relaxed and fun. We never felt rushed or stressed. There’s a lot to see at the venue, lots of different options for where to take pictures! You need minimal decorations because the venue is so pretty.

Hartman’s Herb Farm is the perfect wedding venue! It’s quaint, yet absolutely stunning! Lynn and Carissa are beyond helpful and were there to help us every step of the way! The food was delicious! We had our rehearsal dinner there as well! They put together every little detail we wanted, they made our cake, cupcakes, AND did all of our florals! 10/10 recommend having your wedding here!

11/10 - definitely recommend!

Hartman's Herb Farm was the perfect wedding venue. Lynn and Carissa have been nothing short of amazing since the day I submitted an inquiry. They were dedicated to making our big day perfect, and it really was better than I ever dreamed it could be.
After having our fantastic rehearsal dinner in the deck room, my bridesmaids and I stayed the night in the B&B. Our rooms were all so charming, very clean, and the beds were super comfortable. Breakfast the next morning was delicious and plentiful. Our hairdressers and makeup artists had plenty of room to get us all dolled up in the bridal suite.
Lynn did an excellent job with our flowers. I had no real idea what I wanted, aside from our color scheme and rough ideas for shapes. Lynn ran with it, and knocked it out of the park. Our bouquets and centerpieces were stunning, much better than I ever could've imagined. She also did a fantastic job coordinating everyone and everything to put together a beautiful ceremony at the new chapel. I didn't have to do a single thing the day of our wedding, the whole day just happened, exactly to and exceeding my wishes.
It's been nearly a month, and my guests still can't stop talking about the "most delicious wedding food ever" - Carissa is phenomenal. There is no competition for the food served at Hartman's, and nobody will ever be disappointed or hungry after a wedding catered by Carissa. I'm still dreaming of the butternut squash ravioli with burnt sage butter. We served cupcakes, and everyone raved about them. They were simply scrumptious.
We stayed in the B&B on Saturday night with some of our friends, and had another delightful breakfast before packing up and heading out to our honeymoon. It was so relaxing on Sunday morning, with no frantic rushing around.
For a "one stop shop" wedding, you simply cannot pass up Hartman's Herb Farm. They take care of everything so you don't have to worry about a thing. Lynn and Carissa are wedding wizards, friendly and professional, flexible and accommodating to your ideas and last-minute "oh yeah!" details. I cannot recommend Hartman's enough!!

Beautiful Venue with Amazing Staff

We had the most wonderful experience with Hartman's for our wedding last weekend! Lynn and Carissa (and the rest of the team at Hartman's!) are incredibly thorough and care so much about about making sure everything is perfect. They were flexible and easily accommodated special requests for specific craft beers, special flowers, and allergy-friendly foods. They went out of their way during the day of to help everything run smoothly and were amazing with our guests. The food was delicious and the cake was the best we've ever had. We look forward to returning in the future and visiting the baby goats and the Hartman family! Thanks so much, Lynn and Carissa :)

My husband and I searched high and low for the perfect wedding venue. We knew we wanted something unique and outdoors, so we visited several outdoor venues. When we stepped foot onto the gravel pathway to Hartman's Herb Farm we knew it was the venue for us. Hartman's is a whimsical herb farm, set in the woods in Barre, Ma. It had so much character it truly spoke for itself, but we were happy that the wonderful owners came to greet us with smiles and open arms. Lynn and Carissa were amazing to work alongside. They were extremely accommodating and professional. They offered many great pieces of advice throughout the entire wedding planning process. Hartman's Herb Farm is an entire package deal -- they offer on-site catering, an on-site florist, and on-site accommodations in their bed and breakfast. We had an incredible experience. We highly recommend their lush, whimsical gardens and unexcelled hospitality to all who are searching for the perfect venue.
Kindly,
Missy and Luke

My wife and I had our wedding ceremony and reception at Hartman's in November and we couldn't have been happier with how things turned out. Lynn and Carissa are some of the friendliest people we've ever met. They remembered us every time we came back as we were planning and were flexible with every intricate detail. Their staff put so much work into making the farm look better than we could have imagined for our wedding day. They even printed pictures for us the and gave us plates full of our wedding dinner the next day. We would recommend them to anyone who wants to be treated like a person (not a number) on their wedding day and who appreciate and celebrate their community-centered way of doing business!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I'm not only happy to endorse Hartman's Herb Farm, I feel a sense of duty to do so for anyone who is considering this venue for a wedding, or any function for that matter. Quite simply, you will not find a better venue, or a better staff to work with. I've had the pleasure of working with the owners of Hartman's for many years. They are the ultimate professionals, extremely well versed in what it takes to create an event that is as close to perfect as you can find. The location is charming and beautiful. The grounds are meticulously maintained. The food is just about the best I've had anywhere. I've seen many truly happy families blown away by their experience there. If I can expand on anything for anyone who is considering Hartman's, I would encourage you to please reach out to me by e-mail or phone. You can find links to both on my website. Good luck and have fun on your celebration.
