The Ideal Location for Your Private Events

Appleton Farms, a one thousand-acre property located on the North Shore of Massachusetts, is known for its preserved New England charm. Our pastoral vistas, hours of walking trails, and wide variety of programming provide an idyllic setting and immersive experience for you and your guests.

Farm-Fresh, Locally Sourced Ingredients

Decadent, wood-fired pizza is our speciality, but so is cooking with locally sourced food. We partner with you to curate a seasonally inspired, farm-fresh menu that meets your dietary needs and culinary expectations. Our menu changes weekly based on freshly harvested produce from our farm and other locally sourced ingredients.
