Across our seasonal farm events — the Lavender Farm Fest, Unicorn Experience, and Butterfly Experience — our Marketspace is thoughtfully curated to complement the atmosphere and magic of each event. Our goal is to create an inviting shopping environment filled with artisanal goods, handcrafted products, quality ingredients, and distinctive, high-end finds that reflect creativity, craftsmanship, and the beauty of locally inspired agriculture.
Each event attracts guests who come not only for the experience itself, but also to explore and shop from unique makers and small businesses. Vendors are selected to enhance the overall guest experience, ensuring a market that feels cohesive, elevated, and memorable.
Lavender Farm Fest celebrates the beauty of lavender season and homegrown agriculture in Massachusetts, welcoming thousands of visitors to the farm each year. Attendance has exceeded 4,000 guests, with pre-sale tickets consistently selling out well in advance.
The Unicorn Experience offers a whimsical, family-friendly event centered around imagination, storytelling, and interactive encounters. Guests arrive ready to explore, shop, and discover one-of-a-kind items that capture the playful spirit of the day. Attendance exceeds 1,200 guests and is sold out year after year.
The Butterfly Experience highlights nature, transformation, and discovery, attracting families and visitors who appreciate educational experiences, garden-inspired goods, and thoughtfully crafted products connected to the natural world. Attendance has exceeded 2,000 over 2 days.
Together, these experiences welcome thousands of guests throughout the season, creating meaningful opportunities for vendors to connect with engaged visitors in a beautiful farm setting.
