The 1888 Meadow Schoolhouse

Christianson’s Meadow Schoolhouse seats 50 guests (with additional standing space for a bridal party of 10), our English Rose Garden accommodates up to 120 seated guests, and our fully restored greenhouses seat 50 guests.

The Vinery

Our newest picturesque building located just north of the Nursery is named ‘The Vinery’ and it is now open as an event venue.  The Vinery has two levels: the main floor, and two upper lofts, a commercial kitchen, and a beautiful west-facing outdoor patio partitioned by dry-stone wall fencing that is sure to delight.
