Walnut Grove Farm Offerings

Testimonials from Customers!

After seeing the natural beauty, rustic charm, and sense of hominess that the Walnut Grove Farmstead offers, my husband and I knew immediately that this was the perfect place for us to host our wedding ceremony and reception. The historic barn and walnut grove have a truly genuine, enchanting ambiance —the kind of scenery found only in storybooks with a happy ending. For us, there was no better place for us to embark on our happily ever after.

Rich and Janis go above and beyond to ensure that soon to be newlyweds have the best experience possible, as they provided a homemade brunch on the wedding day and ensured we were adequately prepared the day before the wedding. I appreciated Janis’ attention to detail and ability to bring my vision to life, as she crafted one of a kind floral arrangements that added vibrance to our big day.

With big events (like weddings), the little details have a way of spiraling out of control. Every time a new element is added, it seems like it creates a dozen new things to address. It can get overwhelming, fast! But this is where Jan King and the WGF team stands head and shoulders above the rest. Thanks to their incredible attention to detail and proactive approach to handling the big and little details, the planning process was a breeze and we have priceless memories of our wedding day. If you want to have confidence that someone will care as much about creating a great experience for you and your guests as you do, then you want Jan.
— Amanda & Clint
Jan was the florist for our pandemic wedding and she did an absolutely beautiful job! I enjoyed talking with her about the flowers and colors I loved and Jan was able to help make suggestions that fit my style and budget. We had originally planned to get married at Walnut Grove Farm, but due to the pandemic and local COVID restrictions at the time, we opted for a very small ceremony in my sister’s yard with Zoom attendees. Jan’s husband generously offered to take some photos at the farm prior to our wedding (which turned out wonderful) and we also were able to return to the farm after the wedding to take some additional photos with a selfie stick I had purchased. The farm was beautiful, the lighting was perfect, and it was just my new husband and I walking around the farm, enjoying the evening, and taking a few pictures. Even in the middle of the pandemic, we were able to have a very meaningful and enjoyable wedding. Our thanks to Jan and Walnut Groves Farms for amazing flowers, patience/flexibility, attention to COVID recommendations, and a peaceful place to start and end our wedding day!
