Nestled within 200 acres of farm land just 35 miles south of Richmond, The Barns of Kanak's 13-acre grounds consist of ten barns, six silos, a cottage, farmhouse, pool, fountain, courtyards, on-site bridal shop, and ample parking.

The History

Originally owned by the Kanak Family, this property dates back to 1899. John and Molly Kanak raised 11 kids on the property and poured their hearts into the grounds and their legacy.

 

In addition to the various barns, they built three homes which are now commonly used for wedding parties to prepare. The youngest son, Ben Kanak, inherited the farm and lived on the property until 2016, when it then took new ownership and was renovated to become a wedding + event venue.
