- Is there a restroom available?
Yes. Indoor event bookings have access to the guest restroom inside the farmhouse.
- Where is Elm Farm, and where should I park?
Elm Farm is located at 961 S Elm St., Marshfield, MO 65706.
Enter using at the twin brick towers and follow the driveway toward the red barn ahead.
Guest parking is on the gravel near the garage, marked by the red-and-white parking posts.
Come inside through the yellow door at the front porch facing the street.
- What is the difference between a room reservation and an All-Inclusive booking?
A room reservation is best when you need one specific space, such as the Conference Room, Recording Studio, Library, Lounge, or Tea Room.
An All-Inclusive Venue booking is best when you want the main level arranged as one coordinated gathering space instead of choosing rooms one by one. “All-Inclusive” means the farmhouse is reserved as a coordinated booking; food, art supplies, recording equipment, specialty styling, firepit use, and extended kitchen use may still need to be added or approved separately.
- Can we use the kitchen?
Some bookings include arranged kitchen access for coffee, tea, water, refreshments, serving, or simple food staging.
The kitchen is not rented as a commercial kitchen. Full meal preparation, outside catering, warming food, refrigeration needs, or special kitchen use must be discussed before your booking is confirmed.
- Can we bring our own food or drinks?
Yes, guests may bring their own food, snacks, desserts, nonalcoholic drinks, or catered items, depending on the booking type.
Please let us know in advance if you plan to bring food so we can prepare the kitchen, trash plan, serving surfaces, and cleanup expectations properly.
- Can we book Elm for podcast recording, interviews, or brand content?
Yes. The Recording Studio is being prepared for podcasts, interviews, coaching videos, author sessions, course content, local business media, and brand storytelling.
Guests should bring their own recording equipment unless equipment or room styling has been specifically arranged in advance. Other rooms, including the Coffee Bar and Kitchen, Libray/Art Room, Tea Room, Lounge, porch, and outdoor areas, may also be useful for photo and content sessions.
- Can photographers book Elm for client sessions?
Yes. Photographers may book Elm for portraits, brand sessions, product photography, seasonal farm imagery, bridal details, family photos, senior photos, maternity sessions, and creative content.
Available scenes change by season. Some weeks may include flowers, garden rows, mature trees, and styled outdoor gathering spaces. Other weeks may show more active weeding, planting, mowing, or farm work.
- Can I get married on the farm?
We would love to help you say I do among the flowers!
Elm is the perfect place to host a micro-wedding or intimate ceremony. Reach out so we can discuss group size, available indoor venue space, restrooms, setup, and what you can expect for the bloom season.
Elm is not a large banquet-style wedding venue, but with 16 acres and thousands of square feet of flowers, there is absolutely space for your wedding dreams.
If you’re looking for a reception area, bridal prep, portraits, showers, brunches, small celebrations, family gatherings, or simple seasonal events, Elm is available year-round.
- What parts of the property are unavailable to guests?
Elm is a working farm with personal living areas for our farm manager. Guest spaces will be marked by booking type. Private steward areas, basement, attic, family living spaces, work/storage areas, and any marked “No Guest Access” spaces are not included unless specifically arranged.
Thank you for helping us keep Elm usable as both a working farm and a hosted gathering place by staying within the guest-ready areas for your booking.
- What rooms can be used during a booking?
Room access depends on the booking type. Elm may include use of the Conference Room, Recording Studio, Lounge, Library, and Coffee Bar,
Not every booking includes every room. Some spaces may be reserved or unavailable depending on the season and event needs.
