About this venue

Goodtree Farmstead is an elegant and rustic Minnesota farm event and wedding venue in Northfield, just a short drive from the Twin Cities. Located in rural Northfield, we are a few minutes outside of the quaint downtown area, but also a 15 minute drive from Lakeville or 40 minute drive from downtown Minneapolis or Saint Paul. We are a 14 acre former dairy farm nestled in a wooded area surrounded by green farmland and our very own pond and wandering creek. Our red barn--built in 1897 with soaring ceilings and stunning pegged beams, and the other farm out-buildings have all the charm you need to make your farm wedding or special event dreams come true.


Our event spaces

Goodtree Farmstead

A fabulous place to hold your wedding!

With upper barn space that can seat 100 people and outdoor spaces that can accommodate 150 with a tent, we can help you host the wedding of your dreams. Our pond is surrounded by birch trees and a meandering path to take you and your guests out to our prairie, the perfect location for a cocktail reception or yard games. The weeping willow tree provides shade and a striking backdrop for your ceremony. On the stage in front of the willow you can exchange vows in front of your guests. If getting married by the water is your idea of perfection, we have a beautiful pondside wedding site that is surrounded by birch trees. Our third outdoor site overlooks the barn and is surrounded by trees. We also have an indoor ceremony site in the lower barn with pews that can accommodate groups of up to people. We call it “The Parlour” because it was once the milking parlour, but now it works great for cocktail receptions, concerts, or just hanging out.

    Goodtree Farmstead's owner, Jenn, was kind, warm, collaborative, flexible, and nothing short of wonderful from our first phone call! This location was beautiful, intimate, and perfectly set up to host our small wedding of 50 people. The pond and barn are picturesque and the farmhouse a perfect spot for getting ready. Jenn was communicative and worked with us to iron out every detail leading up to and on the day of the event. She was accommodating and easygoing through it all, which put us at ease so we could focus on making memories. We are thrilled to have had our wedding at Goodtree Farmstead and wish we could relive the day there!

    Goodtree Farmstead gave us the most beautiful wedding. The venue was wonderful and they were so responsive and accommodating in the planning process. It’s the perfect location for a ceremony and reception, with plenty of space for guests to play, eat, and roam around throughout the day. The farm at night, with all the lights, created a great atmosphere for drinks and dancing. The backdrop of the trees, and the barn, and water made beautiful wedding pictures. I cannot recommend this venue and team enough for your event!
