About the Venue
A two-acre West Side city farm pairs a private gated garden with an indoor event space known as the Coop. The setting works for weddings, farm dinners, workshops, classes, family reunions, pop-up dinners, nonprofit gatherings, and corporate retreats, with growing space and greenery surrounding the event areas. Fresh air and an outdoor backdrop change the character of a gathering immediately, especially for receptions, celebrations, and company events that benefit from room to move around. Views toward the surrounding landscape bring a calmer visual backdrop to the gathering and make the setting feel removed from a typical indoor event room. The patio adds a useful outdoor area for cocktails and conversation, particularly when weather allows guests to move between indoor and outdoor settings. The location and room design make the venue feel connected to its Chicago setting, which adds another layer of identity for local guests and visitors alike. The scale is large enough to create energy when the room is active, yet the event still benefits from the venue's permanent features and established sense of place.
Capacity is around 125 guests. The combination of indoor and outdoor space gives gatherings a relaxed agricultural feel that is unusual within Chicago, while the working farm provides a strong visual identity for community and food-focused events. It is a natural fit for groups that want the location itself to be one of the event's memorable features. With that mix, the venue can comfortably serve weddings, private celebrations, and meetings and team programs without losing the character that makes the property distinctive. The venue also gives organizers several natural moments within one booking: arrival, conversation, the main program, dining, and a more relaxed close to the event.
