We specialize in Christmas trees, pumpkins & mazes, barn weddings, day camp, livestock, and more! We offer beautiful views, large open spaces, ample parking and easy access for up to 350 guests! Located in Pompey, the Southern Hills of Onondaga County, we are only a short drive from major interstate highways and the city of Syracuse. We are a working fall harvest and Christmas tree farm, with permanent arbors, a gazebo, and many green and rustic features. Our spacious barns are natural wood, with large doors that not only let in the scenery and keep everything else under cover, but keep the venue well-ventilated as well. A full commercial kitchen is available to the caterer of your choice. Indoor restrooms, handicap accessible, are conveniently located and a bride’s room is also available should you wish to use it. Our staff person will be on-site at all times to facilitate flower arrival, caterer access, DJ or band arrival, and parking – whatever is necessary!  The closest hotel accommodations are available in Tully, right on Interstate 81, or in the historic village of Cazenovia. You may want to utilize our facilities for events other than weddings and we are happy to accommodate you. "The Harvest Barn," where our weddings are hosted, features six large doors that open to views of the sunset over the rolling hills of Pompey, two 14' x 14' sliding doors, and a large curtain that spans the length and height of the barn. When raised, this curtain lets in the refreshing summer breeze, keeping your guests comfortable while they enjoy the view of thousands of Christmas trees. Your guests will also enjoy an outdoor patio that adds over 1,900 square feet to your reception or ceremony space. We offer ample space (over 5,000 square feet!) for your guests to dine, dance, and celebrate comfortably. There is even room for ceremony space should you need to utilize the interior of the barn due to inclement weather. The vintage-inspired string lights add to the rustic ambiance of the all-wood interior, while the opened doors and raised curtain offer breathtaking views of the natural landscape at Springside Farm.
