For photos of past events, click HERE (coming soon)In 2017, after organizing their own wedding reception overlooking Ridgemeade’s English-Countryside-like beauty, the Ragghianti Family decided that they would love to share the beauty and experience of the farm with others.
The farm itself is the venue, and couples can utilize our historic barn built in 1849 or our one of our stunning hills or dales, season dependent. We are committed to utilizing all that the farm has to offer to enhance your wedding experience.
Ridgemeade is a true farm to table venue and as such, we will work with your caterer to incorporate our farm-fresh produce, dairy, meat, and flowers into the wedding experience.
Fresh Cut FlowersCo-owner Danielle Ragghianti is a protegee of the iconic Erin Benzakein of Floret Farm. At Ridgemeade she grows an abundant variety of specialized and rare cut flowers. From table centerpieces to pew decorations and even the bridal bouquet, we can customize your designs to be a perfect reflection of your style.

Summer is well underway, and our favorite crops are flourishing in the fields, the chickens and pigs are getting fat and the orchards are bursting with fruit!
We are eagerly planning for the fall bounty and hope you’ll join us for our first annual Harvest Festival in 2024.
Harvest Festival features rolling behind-the-scenes Hay-Wagon tours of our fully Regenerative farm with meanders through the pastures to see cows and chickens doing their thing, pigs rooting in the forest, bees buzzing in the orchards, wine from our favorite Pennsylvania wineries, and beer from our favorite local brewer, not to mention farm-made spirits, cooking, and innovation spaces.
The festival concludes with a long-table sit-down dinner on Hobbit HIll overlooking the heart of Ridgmeade farm - our organic pastures.
