Located in the rolling hills of New Gloucester, Maine, Pineland Farms is a 5,000-acre working farm, diverse business campus, & educational & recreational venue. They make their own cheese, cows graze in the pastures, there is a gorgeous, state-of-the-art equestrian center, hiking & biking trails, a market full of yummy local goods, one-acre perennial, herb, & vegetable garden, & guest houses throughout the property...did I forget anything? Perhaps.
Pineland Farms was absolutely wonderful. Rich, Mom, & I spent the better part of Saturday walking around pointing & saying, "Ooh, look at that!", "Ooh! A horse!", "Pretty!" Okay, it was mostly me saying those things, but we were all quite taken with the Farm. We ate lunch in the market {egg salad made with eggs from the Farm & bread from my fav, Big Sky} which is full of local & organic food, including wine & beer. The Farm is brimming with beauty, charm, &...convenience! The Farm does the catering {using their own produce & other local food}, they have many different locations for a ceremony & reception {garden, pasture, gazebo, indoor...}, & guest houses which sleep 5 to 21 people. How fun would it be to wake up with the fam & our friends the morning after the wedding? Fresh eggs anyone?
swoon!

Not sure if you're interested in Connecticut, but I'm getting married in September in Pomfret (in the "quiet NE corner of the state) at Tyrone Farm. It's a beautiful location for a countryside, eco-friendly wedding. http://www.tyronefarm.com/
Just a suggestion. Best of luck, I love your blog!
