Pioneer Farm was a GEM of a new venue for me to visit in 2022.

The Garrison is a favorite! The stunning views, beautifully placed springtime flowering trees, sunset views from cocktail hour and the reception and AMAZING food! They also have a handful of on-site rooms for you to stay if you choose.
