  Steve Violette of Dick's Market in Lunenburg, Massachusetts, farms over 40 acres of beautiful farmland at Apple Hill Farm & Country Club, which is part of the Apple Hill Farm & Country Club complex. In addition to the over 360 peach trees, there are also other fruit trees such as nectarines, cherries, apricots, and plums, as well as a diverse assortment of vegetables such as corn, tomatoes, peppers, assorted greens, cabbages, potatoes, beans, and many more! When the fields are in season, the restaurant and banquet facility takes great pride in serving their own produce, which is also available for purchase at Dick's Farm stand, which is located at 647 Northfield Road in Lunenburg, Massachusetts. We encourage visitors to take in the beauty of our farm while also learning more about the advantages of supporting local agriculture.

Apple Hill Farm & Country Club is a premier New England wedding venue located in the heart of the Berkshires. Due to our centralized location, which is only 48 miles from Boston and 23 miles from Worcester and only a few miles off of Route 2, we are easily accessible from points throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and the rest of the Northeastern United States. We are a family-owned and operated restaurant and event venue, so please bear with us as we introduce ourselves. In addition, we have a 35-acre farm on the premises, where we proudly serve all of our own produce during the harvest season. We only host one wedding per day, allowing our clients to select the time slot that works best for them. On site, we have a beautiful ceremony site overlooking our 350+ peach tree orchard that faces west, providing our couples with a stunning sunset view as their backdrop. A stone fireplace, full bar, and adjacent screened in porch are available for cocktail hour (depending on the time of day, the Library Bar & Restaurant area may also be available for cocktail hour), and our newly constructed ballroom, which can accommodate up to 200 guests, was completed in 2012.

Because of the outdoor ceremony site, the numerous photograph locations around the farm, and the formal ballroom reception, we are able to provide our guests with a timeless and elegant country wedding experience. Everyone is different, and we want your wedding day to reflect both your personalities and your style. From rustic chic to black tie, our venue provides you with the flexibility to create the wedding of your dreams!

  The Sankaty Head Beach & Golf Club

  100 Sankaty Rd, Nantucket, MA 02554, USA

  • Spaces for 50-150 Guests
  • 1 Country Club

  The Sankaty Head Golf Club is a private golf club that also features tennis and beach facilities. It offers its members and their families first-rate recreational and social activities in a setting that is low-key and relaxed. The game of golf is the principal emphasis of the Club. The golf course is known for being an exceptional example of golf design in the links style, and it is bordered by undeveloped area and various types of animals. The natural splendor and tranquility of the area are highly valued by the membership, and they consider the course's difficulty to be of equal importance. The Caddy Camp, which is made possible by the generous contributions of club members to the Sankaty Head Foundation, contributes to the overall quality of the golf experience at Sankaty. This camp is the last of its type and is an essential component of the Sankaty golfing legacy. It provides young people from all over the country with opportunities to participate in recreational activities and it also offers a scholarship program. The mission of Sankaty is to organize events in which several members of a family can take part. Tennis and swimming facilities at the Beach Club offer a variety of activities for younger children, teenagers, and adult members. Whereas golf is primarily oriented toward members and their spouses, with limited play by children under the age of college, tennis and swimming facilities at the Beach Club offer a variety of activities. The Club's social activity calendar is confined to certain events that are spread out over the summer season. This is done in acknowledgment of the fact that the Island offers a wide variety of alternative activities. The services and employees are kind and competent, and they are up to date while avoiding following any particular fashion trends. The food at the restaurant is delicious, and the gatherings are a lot of fun. The members place a high value on Sankaty's relaxed and friendly environment, which is unrestricted by an excessive number of rules and restrictions. The Club is dedicated to maintaining the values that have made it successful in the past while also adapting to the requirements of the present and future. The amenities at the Beach Club and the Clubhouse are both practical and comfortable, and their upkeep and modernisation are planned for in phases that adhere to the budget while yet preserving the historical nature of the buildings. Despite the fact that its facilities only allow for a total membership of 550 people, the Club has, throughout its history, kept its doors open to eligible new member applications who were sponsored by existing members. This strategy has served the Club well during times of high demand, and it has gained the faith of its members that admissions to membership are conducted democratically and equitably. This has earned the Club the confidence of its members. Properly sponsored legacies are given some precedence toward membership in order to ensure that the membership continues to value a strong emphasis on family. The Club, on the other hand, is of the opinion that it is vital to maintain a steady influx of new applicants for membership in order to forestall the risk of the organization becoming inbred through the implementation of a legacy policy. It is not due to the economic constraints of its membership that Sankaty is an affordable club; rather, it is due to the preference of its members. A significant amount of effort has been put in order to prevent the Club from being economically exclusive. The Club has ensured that the costs of its day-to-day operations and capital enhancements are fairly distributed among its membership in order to sustain this quality as well as the high standard of its establishments and offerings. In a nutshell, the mission of Sankaty is to establish itself as an exceptional family golf club that features a distinctive design, an engaging social program, and a summertime recreational atmosphere. The objective is to find a happy medium between modernization and preservation of established practices, with the end result being an improvement in the level of satisfaction experienced by members on an annual basis. The vast views of the Atlantic Ocean and Sesachacha Pond that are offered by the Sankaty Head Beach Club are available to guests whether they are exchanging vows or enjoying a gathering under a tent. The atmosphere and the breathtaking sunset combine for a setting that is sure to be memorable for any event, whether it be a laid-back clambake or an elegant banquet.

  In addition to being a National Historic Landmark, the Lyman Estate, also known as "the Vale," is considered to be one of the finest examples of a country estate built in the style of eighteenth-century English naturalistic design in the United States. For his family's residence in 1793, shipping merchant Theodore Lyman commissioned renowned architect Samuel McIntire to design and construct a Federal-style residence. The house was first expanded in the Victorian style in 1882, and then remodeled in the Colonial Revival style in 1917, under the direction of the family. The thirty-seven-acre property includes gardens that have been meticulously preserved as well as historic greenhouses. During a tour of the mansion, which is now a wedding and corporate event venue, you can learn about the history of the Lyman family. One of the building's architectural features is a graceful oval parlor and an elegant ballroom, both of which can be seen in the upcoming film adaptation of Little Women. Pay a visit to the Lyman Estate Greenhouses for stunning plants and knowledgeable advice. Historic New England is adhering to all applicable state, local, and CDC safety regulations for the Waltham location. All employees and visitors are required to wear protective masks.

  • Spaces for 300 Guests

The grounds offer an entirely outdoor setting: wooded trails, fields of wildflowers, an arboretum with more than 80 conifer species, remnants of a historic cranberry bog, and a 10-acre hemlock grove called Paradise. Events are anchored by an open-air pavilion with a fire pit. The Bull Run Restaurant serves as exclusive catering manager for all private events at Farandnear, bringing farm-to-table menus and full-service event coordination to the property.
