Jim and Shirley Hershey bought the property from Shirley's parents, Raymond and Ruth Miller, in 1978 and have farmed the 250 acres of land since then. Harvest View Barn is currently owned and operated by Jim and Shirley Hershey as well as their son and daughter-in-law, Marc and Crystal Hershey.

The setting is quite nice through your eyes, the problem is if you have any olfactory senses at all it is almost unbearable. Even in 55 degree weather the smell of the industrial sized chicken farm on the property is the only thing you notice. Do not plan your wedding here. The only thing people will talk about is how terrible the smell was.

Beautiful venue but if the coordinators and planners were included I felt they had lots of weakness, especially d.j who messed up Music down the isle multiple times. The officiant was,... eh'... She didn't keep your attention. However, not every day is prefect and overall my experience was positive! I would still consider having an event here as a party planner enthusiast.

If this shot doesn’t sell you on their grounds, I’m not sure what will. I mean, come on! 😍
We have gotten the privilege of working with the team at Harvest View many times this year. One of our favorite things about the venue is that they have multiple different locations options for your ceremony. Not only does this allow the vision for your wedding to come to life… it also ensures that you have a great back-up plan should rain come on your big day! (P.S. That is a HUGE thing to take into consideration when venue shopping.)

Attended a wedding here and it a very simple, beautiful location. Well maintained property - away from the noise and hustle and bustle of the city. Their parking area is unpaved so one has to be prepared for that setting. The lawns are well maintained with a fountain in middle making it look very picturesque specially at sunset. The reception was inside the barn building and again had the rustic, rural charm to it.

When we first looked at Harvest View Barn at Hershey Farms it was Super Bowl Sunday and snowing outside. We pulled up to the property and it was absolutely gorgeous. We met with Shirley and took a tour both inside and out. We instantly fell in love and knew that if the farm was absolutely beautiful covered in snow it was bound to be even more beautiful for our September wedding. Every single person we worked with at Harvest View Barn was incredible. From Shirley giving us a tour through snow and getting us all booked with our date, to Marc getting everything squared away with contracts and sending

I was on this property for a friend's weeding and WOW, what a miraculous place!
There is a pond, a beautifully renovated barn, and amazing landscaping. I can't attest to the actual services performed by this place, but the venue is spectacular being classy and modern, but with a touch of rustic found in the open wood beams and entire wooden structure.
