I have attended two recent events at MAHS/the Bruentrup Heritage Farm - the 80s Prom and the Big Red Barn Farmers Market - both events were a BLAST!
I couldn't believe the level of detail that went into 80s Prom. There was an exhibit featuring photos from 1980s proms at area high school, a silent auction with themed items, themed snacks, a photo booth with props, and tons of decorations. The music was fantastic and my husband and I danced the entire night! The organizers really thought of everything to make it fun, unique and entertaining all evening long, and it was a very welcoming and inclusive atmosphere.
The Big Red Barn Farmers Market had an excellent variety of vendors, and I noticed that there were no duplicate vendors - so one jam vendor, a meat vendor, a chocolate vendor, one large tent for veggies, etc. - so it wasn't like other farmers markets where you feel awkward choosing one vendor over another, knowing they're all competing. I really appreciated that and got some tasty products for a good price! The barn and exhibit spaces were also open during the market, which was a nice benefit for attendees. MAHS has a phenomenal exhibit about 3M with great images, artifacts, and thoughtfully done text and design.
The entire property has a very welcoming and friendly atmosphere. And the flowers are absolutely gorgeous! If you haven't been - do yourself a favor and plan a visit. You'll enjoy taking a deep breath in a pastoral atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of the city!
