At Durrant Farms Estate, we believe the most meaningful moments happen when you slow down, breathe deep, and share time with the people you love.

Founded by husband-and-wife duo Whitney and Tom Durrant, the estate blends elegance with wild beauty — offering unforgettable wedding weekends, cozy farmstays, and hands-on experiences with our beloved llamas and alpacas.
We’re more than just a venue — we’re a small working farm with big hearts.
