Welcome to Blue Bell Farm

The property, nestled in the heart of Missouri, includes a timeless event barn, guest cottage, and scenic views. 

Jamie and Derek Bryant are seventh-generation owners of this 300-acre parcel of land, and are proud to continue a modern chapter of its story.

Founded as part of the New Madrid Land Grant in 1812, their ancestors broke ground on the farmhouse (which still stands today) and planted the farm’s first gardens more than two centuries ago. 

The Bryants stepped into new roles as stewards and preservationists of this land in 2011 with hopes of welcoming guests from far and wide to enjoy the gardens, prairies, and waterways that encompass the property.

With the raising of an event barn in 2014, Blue Bell Farm became what they had dreamed: a haven for gathering and jubilation.

Seasonally-driven farm dinners, weddings, retreats and more happen often here, and the 2023-2024 season ushers in another exciting new season for the farm.

“As the farm begins its next adventure, we welcome you to come along on the journey as our guest.”

– Jamie and Derek Bryant
