Make our unique and beautiful historic farm the location for your next event. Broad vistas of hillside orchards, a scenic pond nestled beside rustic barns, remarkable stone sculptures, and historic vacation homes are a few of the many pleasures you and your guests will enjoy when you host your event at our 571-acre working farm and heirloom apple orchard, which was also a primary filming location for the 1999 film The Cider House Rules. Whether you’re planning a joyful celebration, a thoughtful retreat, an important business meeting, or anything in between, we’ll work with you to make your event one your guests will remember.

The Scott Farm Apple Barn is available for rent for all manner of special occasions including:

  • birthdays

Our beautiful historic property is the perfect Vermont location for your event. You'll be surrounded by a National Register listed historic farmstead in active cultivation since 1791. Decidedly picturesque and rural, yet close to bustling, artsy Brattleboro, we offer a truly unique venue for your important day.

We’re also the perfect venue to treat your guests to our growing line of delicious hard ciders, made right here at the farm from our very own heirloom apples.

Scott Farm is a Certified B Corp, and we’re driven by our values: history, connection to the land, and environmental stewardship. If these values are important to you too, you’ll feel right at home with us and help connect your guests to the importance of caring for our unique Vermont landscape too.

Hosting with us not only gives your guests an unforgettable experience, it also makes the world a better place. Your booking fee helps ensure this historic farm, its unique story, and its special character is preserved in perpetuity.
