And we have an exciting opportunity for a few families to care for these chicks with our  spring rent-a-chick program.  Our program includes few-day-old chicks and all of the supplies that you need to care for them for two weeks.  This is a great opportunity for anyone who is thinking about getting chickens or even those who can’t have chickens because of HOA rules (these will remain in a container that you keep in your home or garage).  When you return your chicks & supplies\, you’ll get a certificate for a dozen eggs to use when your chicks start laying. \nPick-up: Saturday\, April 19th\, 9:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. \nEach family will receive: \n\n3 chicks (about 5-days old)\nA box for the chicks to live in\nExtra bedding\nFeeders\, Waterers\, and Feed for 2-weeks\nHeat Lamp\nInstructions for care\nA certificate for a dozen eggs when your chicks start lay in the Fall\n\nAt the end of two weeks\, you will return your chicks and equipment to The FARM. \nDrop-off: Saturday\, May 3rd\, 9:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. Chicks can only be returned during this window.  If you cannot drop-off during this time\, please do not reserve them. \n$37 per family (at pick-up you will be asked to leave a credit card on file.  If you do not return your chicks or equipment\, we will charge the card on file an additional $37 to cover the cost of equipment). \nFAQs: \nQ: Where will I keep the baby chicks? \nA:  Choose an area inside of your garage or home.  DO NOT place chicks outside on a porch\, deck\, or area where they will be in the elements and susceptible to predators.  Pick an area that allows for proper ventilation while avoiding drafts \nQ: What if we have pets? \nA: Other pets\, like cats and dogs\, need to be kept away from the chicks.  These animals have predatory insticts that may pose a threat to the chicks & there shouldn’t be direct contact between the two.  Obviously\, your pet is a member of your family and so if separation is not possible\, then we suggest reconsidering the rent-a-chick program. \nQ: What is a good age range for Rent-a-Chick? \nA: Any child can enjoy this experience.  And\, we’ve even had adults without children participate in this program! Young children do need to be supervised and you should not allow them to hold the chicks on their own until they have had some practice. Watch for pulling\, poking\, biting\, shaking\, and dropping (this is a natural reaction for a young child who hasn’t interacted before\, but they can quickly learn proper handling) \nQ: What if we decide chickens aren’t for us and we want to return them early? \nA: Our chickens are always welcome home! If you get into this and decide at any point it’s not for you all\, then just give us a call and we’ll schedule a time for you to return them. There are no refunds for early returns. \nQ: What if we really like the experience and decide we want to keep the chickens? \nA: This happens a bunch! We are thrilled when families have such a good experience and decide to continue on their own journey with chickens.  You’ll just give us a call and let us know your intentions.  We’ll then bill your credit card on-file for the additional $37 to cover the cost of the chicks and the equipment.  Send us pics once in awhile!  We love keeping up with their journey. \n[contact-form to=”info@thefarm1780.com” subject=”Rent a Chick 2025 Waitlist”][contact-field label=”Name” type=”name” required=”1″][contact-field label=”Email” type=”email” required=”1″][contact-field label=”Phone Number” type=”text” required=”1″][/contact-form] URL:https://thefarm1780.com/event/rent-a-chick-spring-2025/ LOCATION:The FARM\, 1127 Corley Mill Rd.\, Lexington\, SC\, 29072 CATEGORIES:Ticketed Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://thefarm1780.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Spring-2025_Rent-A-Chick-Instagram.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250420T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250420T150000 DTSTAMP:20260404T101608 CREATED:20250324T124044Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250418T180537Z UID:17504-1745154000-1745161200@thefarm1780.com SUMMARY:The Farmer's Table - Easter Brunch DESCRIPTION:Join us for our first Farm to Table brunch series at The FARM 1780 – The Farmer’s Table.  The Farmer’s Table brunches are indoor\, 3-course fully-plated meals with a menu made up of ingredients that are sourced directly from The FARM 1780 & other local farmers the week of the brunch. \nThese 3-course meals will feature different chefs and food styles based on the season.  The meals are held inside the farmhouse.  Like a Chef’s table\, these meals are intimate and menu items are chosen by the chef and farmer based on what is in-season and within the theme of the brunch. \nOur first brunch will be on Easter Sunday April 20th.  Brunch will consist of three dishes with juices\, coffee and seasonal mimosas. \nSeating at 1:00 p.m. \nMenu: \nFresh Brewed Coffee Bar with light scones and pastries \nFarm Fresh Mimosa Bar: Bellini\, Mimosa and Strawberry Basil. \nCourse 1: Smoked Salmon Salad \nEntreé: Surf & Turf Eggs Benedict – Crabcake\, Steak\, Farm Fresh Eggs\, House-made sauces \nDessert: Belgium Waffle\, Fresh strawberry compote\, whipped cream \nThe Farmer’s Table Series Brunches are limited to 20-people.  If you want to be seated together\, please purchase all tickets together.  Otherwise\, seating is on a first-come\, first-serve basis.

Young children do need to be supervised and you should not allow them to hold the chicks on their own until they have had some practice. Watch for pulling\, poking\, biting\, shaking\, and dropping (this is a natural reaction for a young child who hasn’t interacted before\, but they can quickly learn proper handling)\n\nQ: What if we decide chickens aren’t for us and we want to return them early?\n\nA: Our chickens are always welcome home! If you get into this and decide at any point it’s not for you all\, then just give us a call and we’ll schedule a time for you to return them. There are no refunds for early returns.\n\nQ: What if we really like the experience and decide we want to keep the chickens?\n\nA: This happens a bunch! We are thrilled when families have such a good experience and decide to continue on their own journey with chickens.  You’ll just give us a call and let us know your intentions.  We’ll then bill your credit card on-file for the additional $40 to cover the cost of the chicks and the equipment.  Send us pics once in awhile!  We love keeping up with their journey.

The Roost is our new series of guys’ night events at The FARM 1780—designed for the ones who prefer their conversations around a fire pit\, their dinners smoked low and slow\, and their drinks poured with purpose. \nThis inaugural evening brings together three local favorites—The Maduro Room\, The FARM 1780\, and Keg Cowboy—for a night of bold flavors\, fine cigars\, curated bourbon and wine\, and a laid-back atmosphere under the stars. \nWe’re talking smoked prime rib\, bourbon\, wine & cigars this time\, but future Roost nights may bring different flavors and formats. One thing won’t change: a good time\, good people\, and a damn good setting. \nWhether you come with old friends or meet new ones here\, The Roost is about kicking back\, indulging a little\, and enjoying the kind of night you’ll want to come back for. \nThis is a 21+ event. Feel free to bring your better half—as long as they’re cool with you pretending you know a lot about cigars. \n\nWhat’s Included? \nKick things off with The FARM 1780’s signature Blackberry Bourbon Smash and prosciutto-wrapped figs. \nThen settle in for a smoked prime rib dinner\, complete with a farm-fresh salad\, potatoes\, and a few of Keg Cowboy’s favorite sides. We’ll finish strong with a summer berry bread pudding that tastes like it came from your grandma’s kitchen—if your grandma smoked brisket and served bourbon. \nEach ticket includes three cigars from La Gloria Cubana and a shot at winning one of their premium humidors. We’ve got cutters\, lighters\, and ashtrays covered—just bring your crew. \nBonus: Wine and cigar purchases will be available on-site if you want to stock up or keep the night going. \nBy purchasing a ticket you understand that all sales are final and subject to our Event Terms of Use.  If you do not agree with these terms\, please do not purchase a ticket.

Chicks can only be returned during this window.  If you cannot drop-off during this time\, please do not reserve them. \n\n\n\n$40 per family (at pick-up you will be asked to leave a credit card on file.  If you do not return your chicks or equipment\, we will charge the card on file an additional $40 to cover the cost of equipment). \n\n\n\nFAQs: \n\n\n\nQ: Where will I keep the baby chicks? \n\n\n\nA:  Choose an area inside of your garage or home.  DO NOT place chicks outside on a porch\, deck\, or area where they will be in the elements and susceptible to predators.  Pick an area that allows for proper ventilation while avoiding drafts \n\n\n\nQ: What if we have pets? \n\n\n\nA: Other pets\, like cats and dogs\, need to be kept away from the chicks.  These animals have predatory insticts that may pose a threat to the chicks & there shouldn’t be direct contact between the two.  Obviously\, your pet is a member of your family and so if separation is not possible\, then we suggest reconsidering the rent-a-chick program. \n\n\n\nQ: What is a good age range for Rent-a-Chick? \n\n\n\nA: Any child can enjoy this experience.  And\, we’ve even had adults without children participate in this program! Young children do need to be supervised and you should not allow them to hold the chicks on their own until they have had some practice. Watch for pulling\, poking\, biting\, shaking\, and dropping (this is a natural reaction for a young child who hasn’t interacted before\, but they can quickly learn proper handling) \n\n\n\nQ: What if we decide chickens aren’t for us and we want to return them early? \n\n\n\nA: Our chickens are always welcome home! If you get into this and decide at any point it’s not for you all\, then just give us a call and we’ll schedule a time for you to return them. There are no refunds for early returns. \n\n\n\nQ: What if we really like the experience and decide we want to keep the chickens? \n\n\n\nA: This happens a bunch! We are thrilled when families have such a good experience and decide to continue on their own journey with chickens.  You’ll just give us a call and let us know your intentions.  We’ll then bill your credit card on-file for the additional $37 to cover the cost of the chicks and the equipment.  Send us pics once in awhile!  We love keeping up with their journey. \n  URL:https://thefarm1780.com/event/rent-a-chick-fall-2025/ CATEGORIES:Community Events,Ticketed Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://thefarm1780.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Fall-25-Rent-a-Chick.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250918T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250918T193000 DTSTAMP:20260404T101608 CREATED:20250506T133828Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250917T194801Z UID:17854-1758216600-1758223800@thefarm1780.com SUMMARY:Hen's Night Out - Charcuterie and Cheese Board with Wine DESCRIPTION:[vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]2025 is our third year of Hen’s Night Out at The FARM 1780.  This has now become a signature event.  Grab your best chicks and celebrate the fall weather with us!  September’s Hen’s Night Out will feature wine and fall fresh items.
