Tucked away amidst our bustling community lies our family farm, standing for over 150 years. As we have witnessed the disappearance of neighboring farms, our commitment to preserving our heritage deepens. We take pride in our land and enjoy sharing our produce with visitors and our community. We currently grow peaches, apples, cherries, apricots, pears, and grapes, and have rotating fields of produce. We raise free-range grass-fed beef, pasture-range chickens, baby doll sheep, and honey bees. We invite you to share in the abundance and beauty of our family farm.

BEGIN YOUR WEDDING JOURNEY
We listen, we collaborate, and we work tirelessly to ensure that every detail of your wedding reflects your distinct personality and captures the essence of your love.
Five generations later, we revitalized the ancestral farm, honoring Joseph's pioneering spirit and lovingly restoring overgrown orchards and dilapidated buildings. In 1990 a family member’s reception held in the hay barn sparked a trend. Slowly word spread and snowballed into the venue we have become. Today, Wadley Farms stands as a testament to resilience and celebration. Against a backdrop of vineyards and gardens, we continue to honor Joseph's vision, where legacy flourishes in every celebration.
In 1869, Joseph Wadley immigrated from England to Lindon and worked hard to clear the land and plant the first of many crops at the base of the majestic Timpanogos.
THE WADLEY FARMS STORY
Alan is a fifth-generation Wadley. Some of his earliest memories revolve around working on the farm with his grandfather, Joseph Daniel Wadley. He developed a strong connection to the land in his youth and always carried a love for the farm. Kristine, moved to Utah from the East to pursue ballet with Ballet West. Their paths crossed on a blind date, leading to marriage. After 15 years down South, they felt drawn back to Utah and purchased the old family farm. Combining Kristine's artistic vision with Alan's farming expertise, they rejuvenated the farm, restoring dilapidated buildings and orchards, making it productive once more. Their passion lies in the desire for every guest to experience the farm’s peaceful atmosphere and feel like they are part of the family.
