The Space
Coleman Hay Farms is a working agricultural property spanning over 300 acres across Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Purchased by the Coleman family in February 2021, the farm has been in the family for generations and remains a thriving operation for hay, livestock, and pasture-raised products. In 2023, the Coleman family expanded into agritourism and event hosting, launching farm experiences and celebrations on the land they work and steward daily. The farm is not open to the public outside of scheduled events and farm experiences, creating an exclusive atmosphere for your celebration.
The property features a bank barn and a red barn, both used for events and animal interactions, set among pastures, hayride routes, and pumpkin patches. The working farm operates with Scottish Highland cattle, Texas Longhorns, Nigerian Dwarf goats, beef cattle, chickens, and honey bees. The space feels authentic to its agricultural roots, with real farm equipment and animals visible across the grounds, creating a countryside backdrop few commercial venues can match. The seasonal character of working farmland means the landscape changes throughout the year, with spring plantings, summer growth, fall harvest activities, and winter pasture.
Capacity & Layout
The barn spaces are structured for intimate gatherings within a working-farm environment. The bank barn and red barn provide covered indoor or semi-covered event spaces, with outdoor areas for ceremonies and receptions among the farm’s pastures and grounds. The scale and layout suggest flexibility for smaller to moderate-sized celebrations that embrace the working-farm aesthetic. Educational farm tours run May through August, and the property hosts seasonal events like Fall Fest in September and October and Coleman’s Countdown to Christmas in November and December, demonstrating the year-round activity and community engagement of the property.
Visitors are kept within designated areas during events, typically the barn spaces and immediate outdoor zones, ensuring guest comfort and safety given the animals and active farm operations. The property’s farm tour programs throughout the year mean your celebration takes place on a genuinely working, actively managed property rather than a venue that only functions during events.
Amenities
The farm provides barn spaces for events with basic facilities aligned with the agricultural setting. On-site parking is available for guests. The property is located in Chalfont and remains a working farm, so amenities reflect the venue’s authentic rural character rather than full-service wedding venue infrastructure. Food and beverage arrangements would typically be coordinated through outside catering partners rather than on-site kitchen facilities, allowing you flexibility in menu and service style while the venue provides the authentic agricultural setting.
What Coleman Hay Farms offers that commercial venues cannot is the genuine working-farm experience: the real animals, the open land, the seasonal quality of the grounds, and the chance to celebrate within an operating agricultural business. Shawn and Andrew Coleman graduated from Delaware Valley University with degrees in Agri-Business and continue the family farming tradition. The property’s rural Bucks County location means your guests experience genuine Pennsylvania farmland.
Location & Getting There
Coleman Hay Farms sits at 138 Walter Road in Chalfont, Pennsylvania, in the heart of Bucks County between Philadelphia and the farm country of rural Pennsylvania. The location is roughly 30 miles north of Philadelphia and sits in the midst of the region’s agricultural heritage. The drive from the city feels like a real departure into farmland, with rolling terrain, tree-lined roads, and open space. Bucks County’s identity as a farming community and rural refuge from Philadelphia urban sprawl means the venue fits naturally into the regional landscape.
The barn spaces offer natural acoustics with open ceilings and wood construction, ideal for live music or DJ setups where sound can project across the venue without artificial amplification feeling necessary. The semi-open barn design, with doors that can be opened to the grounds, allows flexibility for both covered and open-air celebration depending on weather and your vision for the day. The rural setting ensures minimal external noise interference, creating clean acoustic conditions for your celebration.
