Furnace Town Historic Site is a restored 19th-century industrial village set on 25 acres along the Nassawango Creek in Snow Hill, Maryland. At its center stands the Nassawango Iron Furnace, which operated from 1828 to 1850 as the engine of a self-contained company town built by the Maryland Iron Company. About 300 people once lived and worked here — miners, blacksmiths, broom makers, coopers, and weavers among them — before the operation closed and the Pocomoke Forest gradually reclaimed the site. Restoration efforts began in the 1960s under the Worcester County Historical Society, and the Furnace Town Foundation was established in 1982 to preserve and interpret the property. Today the site functions as a living history museum and event venue, with historic structures, artisan workshops, and nature trails winding through the surrounding woodland. The grounds are available for wedding rentals, offering couples a backdrop that combines authentic 19th-century architecture with the quiet landscape of Maryland's Eastern Shore.

Today Ker Place serves as headquarters and house museum for the Eastern Shore of Virginia Historical Society, offering a three-floor historic house with gallery space and a Herb & Kitchen Garden established in 2004. The house and grounds are available as a venue for weddings and special events, set in the walkable town of Onancock alongside restaurants, churches, and bed-and-breakfasts.

Bordeleau Vineyards & Winery sits along Wicomico Creek south of Salisbury, Maryland — its name translating to "The Water's Edge," a nod to the property's defining natural character. Founded in 1998 when co-owner and winemaker Tom Shelton purchased the farm in Allen, Maryland, Bordeleau planted its first vines in 1999 and earned its commercial license in 2006. Over the years, the estate has grown to encompass more than 13 acres of vineyards producing varieties from Chardonnay and Vidal Blanc to Malbec, Petite Verdot, and Viognier. The winery hosts a range of private events — from bachelorette parties and bridal showers to corporate gatherings, anniversary celebrations, and nonprofit fundraisers. Two event spaces are available for private use: the Banquet Room, which seats up to 65 guests with views overlooking the vineyard, and the Tasting Room, accommodating up to 65 guests and available Mondays through Tuesdays or by request on other days. Outside catering is permitted, and only Bordeleau wines are served on-site.
