We're building it in the open,
starting with sixty square feet.

Nesting Meadows is a veteran-owned family project: a place in the Carroll County countryside where couples will marry among flowers we grew ourselves, and where rescued farm animals live out their days as the heart of it all.

Right now it's a test row of white sunflowers in a backyard, a stack of paperwork, and a plan we believe in. The land comes next. If you like watching something real get built — welcome. You're early, and early is the best seat.

Three seeds, one meadow.

✿

The Venue

Vows in the meadow, dinner in the barn, dancing under string lights. Private, unhurried weddings for people who'd rather celebrate on a farm than in a ballroom.

First dates open · 2028 season

The Flowers

An acre of cut flowers — dahlias, ranunculus, snapdragons, white sunflowers — grown for our own couples' bouquets and centerpieces, harvested the morning of.

Test rows · sown now

❦

The Herd

Rescued goats, sheep, donkeys, and hens with names, stories, and nowhere else to go. They'll greet you at cocktail hour. Every booking feeds them.

First rescues · at the land

The build, as it happens.

An honest ledger. We'll keep it current as each row fills in.

Jul 2026

The first seeds — literal ones

Soil test ordered, a backyard bed marked out, and white sunflower seed on the way. Sixty square feet of proof-of-concept. Sown.

Summer 2026

Nesting Meadows becomes official

The LLC, the name, this website, and the long checklist of very unromantic paperwork that makes the romantic part possible.

Fall 2026

Bulbs in the ground

Tulips and daffodils planted for spring stems, and the first bridal-bouquet trials from the test rows.

2027

Finding the land

The search for the meadow itself — acreage, an old barn with good bones, and neighbors we'll be proud to have.

After that

Fences, flowers, first rescues, first vows

In that order. We'll show you all of it.
