Our costs are dependent on the menu, service style, diversity of options, travel time, etc. so it is highly variable. Our average weddings come in at about $200/pp and include many of the services that conventional caterers consider "extra". We do not know of another outfit doing 100% organic farm to table food. If this is a priority, consider the investment in the context of your budget. We often work with couples to find a menu and options that fit with their overall budget.

We have catered events as small as 7 to up to 400. We can offer cocktail parties with heavy appetizers, full multi-course menus, or even a simple dessert reception. The sky is the limit! We are interested in bringing our farm’s food to your table no matter what your event looks like.

We have been in this business for 12 years and counting, catering over 160 events with service to 25,000+ guests.  

A 50% retainer is required to reserve your date. Final payment is due 30 days prior to your event.

We can offer tastings! Tastings are offered at a flat fee of $350, and can accommodate up to 4 individuals. Tastings include alcohol and beverage sampling as well.

Due to the seasonal nature of our food, we may not be able to prepare every menu item, and we will not utilize live fire to cook the food (unlike at your event, where we typically cook food over an open fire). However, we can definitely showcase what we have at the time of the tasting!

We are transparent with our pricing, and itemize elements for holistic budgeting.

After the event, you can expect a Post Bill (or credit), which will reflect any plate adjustments, vendor plates (billed at 50% of total guest cost), reimbursement for ice ($4 per bag), the return of the $200 damage deposit (if rentals were used) and the like.

We ask that you don’t include your vendors in your final guest count, unless they are coming as a guest as well. Vendor plates are billed at 50% of the per plate cost, in the spirit of camaraderie! Farmstead staff do not factor into the total vendor number. We will cover our staff needs while on site.

Final guest counts are required 30 days prior to your event. After this point, we would only be able to accommodate increases at 150% of the per plate cost, and we wouldn't be able to accommodate any decreases.

We are able to accommodate almost any dietary preferences, with 90% our ingredients coming from the farm and being made in house.

Checks are encouraged and recommended in order to avoid fees, but we do accept ACH/bank transfers and credit/debit cards, which will incur an additional fee equal to 4% of the total.

No. We welcome any gratuities at or immediately after the event if you are pleased with our services. Our philosophy: staff do not count on tips from clients to pay their way in the world; but it is a major motivating factor and one that we use to reward staff who go above and beyond to make it all come together!

We can provide bar service packages, florals, and event planning!

We do not require our clients to utilize our other services, but they certainly make the entire event a seamless experience!

Yes! Our typical catering services include 100% organic, fair-trade coffee, tea, cane sugar, maple syrup and dairy.

We are able to offer rentals, including service ware, tableware, and dinnerware.

We do not offer linens, tables and chairs, or portable restrooms. However, we are able to help facilitate coordination of rentals as your event planner.

With our mobile grill trailer and kitchen, we are proud to cater at almost any venue! We have even catered on an island before, with everything transported in canoes to the venue… after that, anything seems easy!

We do request pressurized water (even if not potable) on site. Access to AC power is a plus, but we can do without. Bathrooms for staff are also required.

With our signature live fire-cooking, it can be challenging to cater in the rain. But we are always prepared for the weather, with tents and the capability to protect our working environment despite the elements.

Children love our food! We often find that no special meals are necessary. Not to mention that children 6 and under are complimentary!

Each menu we create is completely different from the last, making it hard to share a sample menu with any client! Our menus and the plates we will serve at your event will be entirely unique to you and the event you want to create. We aren’t comparable to our “competitors” — we use organic ingredients grown on our farm, we pay our staff a living wage, our staff to guest ratio will be higher than any other because we focus entirely on you and your guest’s experiences. Our pricing and menus are going to be different for each event, leaving it impossible for us to share sample menus… we want to meet you, and create something with you, so reach out!
