SHARON EVENTS FIELD GUIDE
Tented, Private Farm Events Beside the Blueberry Patch
A three‑hour private event package for up to 100 people on Ward’s Berry Farm, with optional hayride and pick‑your‑own add‑ons to tailor a relaxed, country celebration.
Tented, Private Farm Events Beside the Blueberry Patch.
Set against the farm’s blueberry patch and grape vineyard, the Premium Event reserves a private, landscaped lawn and a 30' x 50' tent with lighting, electricity and onsite staff—designed to give larger groups space, privacy, and the ability to add classic farm activities like hayrides or pick‑your‑own experiences.

Outing Highlights
Private lawn and tented gathering space
A secluded event lawn beside the blueberry patch and vineyard comes with a 30' x 50' private tent outfitted with curtain walls, twinkle lighting, electricity, refrigeration, picnic and serving tables, seasonal centerpieces and onsite event staff.
Hayrides and pick‑your‑own add‑ons
Hosts can include a private hayride and seasonally appropriate pick‑your‑own produce or flowers—hayrides are short and scheduled to depart within the first 15 minutes when included, with combined hayride + PYO taking longer.
Built‑in amenities and event staff
Pricing tiers and time slots accommodate parties up to the town‑permitted headcount, with a private restroom trailer on site and Ward’s staff available to assist during the three‑hour event window.
What the day feels like
What the event feels like
The Premium Event is a deliberately simple, rural framework: hosts can arrive an hour early to set up, guests arrive at the scheduled start, and the group enjoys three hours in a reserved tent and lawn area—with the option to step away for a scheduled hayride or seasonal picking experience.
