A Modern Venue on Main Street

The Farm is Granville’s newest event venue, and it’s perfect for your next celebration.

Photographed by Abby Bowman Remember The F.A.R.M.? It stood for Food, Art, and Recreation Market, and it was a retail storefront located right here in Granville, operated by yours truly: the New South Media team. Well, we closed that location when we opened our West Virginia Living Co. kiosk at Pittsburgh International Airport, offering West Virginia’s greatest products to a broader audience.

But we didn’t forget about the Granville space—and it’s officially ready to begin its next life as one of Morgantown’s newest event venues: The Farm.

The Farm joins The Silo in the Square family, adding to the venue’s existing spaces: the Barn, the Chapel, and an outdoor courtyard. The Farm is the largest space yet, and there are a million and one ways to use it, especially with the help of the most attentive events manager in town: Michael Gilligan.

“The Farm is a little more modern, whereas the Barn and Chapel are more rustic,” says Gilligan. “The Farm also has that rustic, cozy nature, but it’s done in a more modern style, which is very fun.”

Here’s just a glimpse of the amenities:

A built-in bar Two restrooms Direct access from Granville’s Main Street Access to the connected outdoor courtyard 85-guest capacity for a seated event, 100-guest capacity for a cocktail-style event Full catering kitchen, making it a great choice for plated, sit down meals—like a high-end professional dinner or a California-style wedding “The Barn and the Chapel are more so a ‘mingle and chill’ set-up for ceremonies, showers, and receptions,” Gilligan says. “But if you want a full-on dinner, that’s definitely The Farm.”

Booking is officially open, so if you’re planning any sort of event—whether it be a baby shower, birthday party, bridal shower, graduation party, professional holiday party, or anything else—Gilligan will be more than happy to help your vision come to life at The Farm.

“We’re booking fast for holiday events, but it truly just depends on which dates you’re looking at,” he says. “During a tour, we sit down and look at the calendar one-on-one to figure out what dates are best for you.”

Visit the venue website to book a tour of The Farm or the other two event spaces—Gilligan can’t wait to help plan your next event.
