Gastler Farm is a 4th generation-family business, always being reinvented for the times. Since 1908, the Gastler family has raised chickens, milked cows, grown strawberries, cultivated our own renowned strains of pansies for over half a century, and raised large-scale ornamental trees and shrubs as a nursery business. Today, you can see the history of four generations made available for our community as an event space for your creative, wellness, and celebratory endeavors.
We look forward to making your vision a reality!

Leah is the 4th generation to bring new life and business to Gastler Farm. She started in the event business hosting classical music concerts in the farmhouse -as a classically trained violist, she holds degrees from Juilliard, Rice, and Bard College Conservatory. Before taking on the family farm, she spent years in the wedding business in Houston Texas, performing either Pachelbel's Canon in D or Christina Perri's 'A Thousand Years' for bridal processionals multiple times a weekend ;) She won't be playing at your wedding, but she can sure recommend some great musicians!
