Our Spaces
COMING SUMMER ‘25
The Greenhouse
Our central gathering space is a radiant-floor heated, industrial style greenhouse with rolling planters and canopy vines. It can seat up to 160 with room for dancing and an outdoor deck with mountain views. Double ridge vents and sidewalls open for passive summer cooling.
COMING SUMMER ‘25
Garden in the sky
Our bluestone patio is framed by perennial plantings and elevated off the hillside for an infinity-pool effect overlooking the green and white mountains. This flexible space can host ceremonies and gatherings of all shapes and sizes.
The Orchard
The farm’s revitalized apple orchard nestled below the mountains can host up to 50 off-grid camping guests. Here you can explore the nursery greenhouse used for experimental agroforestry projects.
The Saphouse
The heart of the working farm’s maple operation is a timber frame saphouse built around a wood-fired evaporator. The space has been used for dance parties, receptions, community organizing, and more.
The YURT
Our yurt is located at the very top of the hill above the greenhouse and garden in the sky, with sweeping views of the mountain. It is furnished, solar-powered, and ready to serve as a cozy retreat after your gathering.
The Farm
Mead Hill is nestled on the hillside at Mount Cabot Maple — a Maple Syrup Farm tucked away in the White Mountains of northern New Hampshire. Mount Cabot Maple is an active queer and women-run farm that produces organic, unblended, wood-fired maple syrup. In a traditional industry prone to over-extraction, Mount Cabot Maple, like Mead Hill, is focused on non-traditional practices, growing sustainably, loving the land, and inviting others into relationship with it.
When we gather differently, everything can change.
- Priya parker, “The Art of Gathering”
Philosophy
In an era of increasing isolation, we often gather only for weddings and funerals - two kinds of increasingly homogenous and performative traditions which often fail to deliver on their promise of what we need most in the moment: connection and transformation.
Inspired by Priya Parker’s “The Art of Gathering,” Mead Hill offers two things differently: a flexible venue that doesn’t come with a script, and a service that works backwards from articulating your truest goals for your gathering to achieve a deeper outcome than just having done what you were supposed to do.
