HISTORY OF THE ANDREWS FARM

A Wedding Venue with History

The Andrews Farm located in Midland, North Carolina has been a part of the Andrews family since the 1970’s.  As a third generation family farm there is an abundance of history which has evolved over the years. Originally the land was used for the sole purpose of farming wheat, soybeans, corn and cotton. Over time the farm evolved into something much more meaningful to our family. In the early 1990’s a cabin dating back to the late 1700’s was discovered on the property and the family decided to restore it and use it as a place to gather on weekends and holidays.  As a result, the farm became a place the entire family could enjoy while having the privileges of experiencing the gifts this beautiful land offers. Some of our family members have loved the farm experience so much that they chose to move to the farm permanently building the home, a modern European inspired farmhouse, that sits on the venue ground’s today. Many joyous occasions and unforgettable memories have transpired on the Andrews farm over the past fifty years including birthday parties, oyster roasts, dove hunts and Thanksgiving dinners. After hosting many large events over the years, the Andrews family is thrilled to now be able to offer this special gem to others as a wedding and special events venue starting in 2020. Our hope is that every guest can be as fortunate as us and create memories that will last a lifetime and hold a special place in their hearts.  We truly want to make sure that the special day you have envisioned becomes a reality.

We can’t wait to host you.
