Our Story

Thousand Acre Farms began in 2013 with the ingenuity of its owner, Mike Hynson. As a successful entrepreneur, he saw the need for a quality venue that focused specifically on weddings and events. With this in mind, Mike set out to create a one-of-a-kind venue for guests to enjoy.

Thousand Acre Farm, a waterfront venue located in Middletown, Delaware welcomes you! This family-owned farm offers couples and guests a glam-rustic feel that cannot be found anywhere else. We promise that you and your guests will have the most amazing time making lifelong memories at our venue. With sweeping waterfront views and a convenient location, Thousand Acre Farm is the ideal place for any special occasion.

At Thousand Acre Farm, we strive to give you the event of your dreams by offering you a variety of party options. Our guests are given the opportunity to work with an array of tried-and-true caterers we provide especially for your convenience. In addition, on the day of your event, Thousand Acre Farm staff will be on-site to supervise and assist in making sure your day runs smoothly. Mike’s passion for the business stems from the love of his family. He created Thousand Acre Farms to be able to work with his immediate family day-to-day and build a company culture that expanded beyond just his family. Thousand Acre Farm is now in the hands of Mike’s children & the second generations of Hynson’s. Mike said, “It’s important that we have the best people, doing the right thing at the right time. When people have a passion for the work they do, their performance is better. The Thousand Acre Family is a group of focused people who have come together with a common goal of creating a great guest experience. They support one another in a collaborative work environment and come together when people are in need.
