Bishop Farmstead

  • Up to 175 guests
  • All-inclusive

Constructed in 1932, this vintage barn oversees 12+ acres of native grasslands – a rich habitat for wildflowers, birds and butterflies – and a historic farmhouse built in the 1750s by a second-generation Quaker farmer. The property is also home to Pinelands Preservation Alliance, whose mission is to protect the natural resources, history and culture of this unique region. In 2017, the Alliance transformed the barn into a great gathering place. The recently completed renovation brings contemporary comfort and energy efficiency to a setting that still retains its authentic character.

Our wedding is this October at Bishop. We are so excited and the venue couldn't be more perfect for a fall or spring wedding. The venue is unique in that the reception is held in the barn loft. How cool and different!! We had a coordinator assigned to us which make us feel secure that our day will run smoothly! Everyone has been so helpful with the entire process. We couldn't recommend this venue and the team behind the scenes more!
