About Us

Welcome to The Farm in Ellett Valley

A place to gather

In our family since 1975, these eighty-eight beautiful acres have been home to countless celebrations over the years. Our sweet matriarch, Betty, always loved gathering her people on the Farm for delicious meals and time together. From Sunday lunches by the creek and large holiday gatherings in the barn to graduation photo shoots and intimate outdoor weddings, we are thankful for the wonderful memories, the recreation, and the reprieve from our busy lives.

As we look forward to the fourth generation of family on the farm, and as a tribute to our founder, we are happy to invite others to enjoy the peace and quiet of this unique gathering place. With enviable mountain views and plenty of wide open space, The Farm can accommodate a wide range of events: VT tailgates, family reunions, school field trips, office retreats, wedding festivities, and more. We encourage bird watching, catching crawdads in the creek, ruthless games of cornhole, and relaxing in the shade.

The Farm is also the headquarters for Ellett Valley Beef Company, so guests will likely get to see some beautiful South Poll cattle grazing in one of the pastures. The Farm is located minutes from downtown Blacksburg and Virginia Tech, so if you are searching for an affordable, beautiful, convenient, and private outdoor setting for your gathering, The Farm might be the right choice. We will provide the oasis, and the rest of the memory-making is up to you!
