The Farm Winery

A Historic and Inviting Destination

Adams County Winery, one of the largest wine producers in south-central Pennsylvania and Adams County’s longest continually operating winery, invites you to experience its rich history and picturesque setting. Nestled just outside Gettysburg, the Farm Winery’s Tasting Room is located in a charming Civil War era bank barn, surrounded by the serene countryside.

When visiting, you’ll find seating options to suit every preference. Enjoy outdoor tables on the terrace Bistro or patio or our grounds adjacent to our seasonal gardens with umbrellas for shade, relax in the cozy indoor space of Rusty’s Cellar, or gather under the covered pavilion, complete with heating for cooler days. For larger events that attract a lively crowd, consider bringing extra seating to ensure everyone can fully enjoy their time at the Farm Winery.
