The Roost - A Guys' Night
2025-06-27 18:30 - 21:30 | The FARM, 1127 Corley Mill Rd., Lexington, SC, 29072
The RoostA Guys’ Night at The FARM 1780
It’s finally your turn, fellas. 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.
This 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.
We’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.
Whether 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.
This 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.

What’s Included?
Kick things off with The FARM 1780’s signature Blackberry Bourbon Smash and prosciutto-wrapped figs.
Then 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.
Each 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.
Bonus: Wine and cigar purchases will be available on-site if you want to stock up or keep the night going.
By 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. Due to the nature of the event, dietary restrictions cannot be accommodated. Gratuity is not included, but appreciated.

Rent-a-Chick (Summer 2025)
2025-06-07 13:00 - 2025-08-02 14:00 | The FARM, 1127 Corley Mill Rd., Lexington, SC, 29072
As part of our summer camp curriculum we will be hatching chicks every week during camp. And we have an exciting opportunity for a few families to care for these chicks with our summer 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.

Program Options:

Round 1: June 7 – June 21

Pickup Saturday, June 7th 1:00 – 2:00 pm | Return Saturday, June 21st 9:00 – 10:00 am

Round 2: June 21 – July 5

Pickup Saturday, June 21st 9:00 – 10:00 am | Return Saturday, July 5th 10:00 – 11:00 am

Round 3: June 28 – July 12

Pickup Saturday, June 28th 10:00 – 11:00 am | Return Saturday, July 12th 10:00 – 11:00 am

Round 4: July 19 – August 2

Pickup Saturday, July 19th 10:00 – 11:00 am | Return Saturday, August 2nd 9:00 – 10:00 am

Each family will receive:

3 chicks (about 5-days old)
A box for the chicks to live in
Extra bedding
Feeders, Waterers, and Feed for 2-weeks
Heat Lamp
Instructions for care
A certificate for a dozen eggs when your chicks start lay in the Fall

At the end of two weeks, you will return your chicks and equipment to The FARM.

Chicks can only be picked-up and returned during the time windows detailed above. If you cannot drop-off during this time, please do not reserve them.

$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).

FAQs:

Q: Where will I keep the baby chicks?

A: 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

Q: What if we have pets?

A: 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.

Q: What is a good age range for Rent-a-Chick?

A: 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)

Q: What if we decide chickens aren’t for us and we want to return them early?

A: 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.

Q: What if we really like the experience and decide we want to keep the chickens?

A: 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.

Spring Farm to Table Dinner
2025-05-17 18:00 - 21:30 | SC
One of the most beloved events at The FARM is back — our Spring Farm-to-Table Dinner!
Kick off the start of our 2025 season with an unforgettable evening of great food, good company, and plenty of fresh air. We’re serving up a four-course, family-style meal packed with the freshest ingredients from The FARM 1780 and other local farmers.
Here’s what’s on the menu (besides delicious food):

Family-Style Dinner by Chef Chris Williams:We’re thrilled to welcome Chris Williams, Executive Chef and Owner of Roy’s Grille in Irmo, SC. A 2022 South Carolina Chef Ambassador, Chris grew up in a family of incredible home cooks in Olar, SC, and built his career on scratch-made Southern comfort food. He’s all about big flavors, fresh ingredients, and honoring family traditions—and it shows in every bite.

Cocktail Hour on the Patio:We’ll kick things off with a laid-back cocktail hour on the farmhouse patio (weather permitting). Sip on two signature cocktails and snack on a welcome hors d’oeuvre while soaking in the views of the flower fields and live music by Coley Williams.

Wine, Farmhouse-Style:No need to make tough wine choices—we’ve got you covered! Your ticket includes table-service wine featuring one white and one red, handpicked to complement the evening’s meal.

More About Chef Chris Williams:Chris is the heart and soul behind Roy’s Grille, a hidden gem that started inside a gas station in Lexington (yes, seriously—it’s that good). Since opening in 2014, he’s built a loyal following with his house-cured bacon, scratch-made BBQ, and creative twists on classic Southern dishes. As a South Carolina Chef Ambassador, he’s been recognized for championing local farmers and bringing a whole lot of heart (and flavor) to every plate he serves.

During this Hen’s Night Out, you will have the opportunity to choose a flower plot & have our team plant it for you with native flowers grown on the farm (additional purchase required). If wildflowers are in bloom, we may have cut stems available for bouquets. But since this is an agricultural product, cut flower availability is based on weather conditions.

This is a great opportunity to grab your mom for a mother/daughter outing to celebrate Mother’s Day. Or, grab some friends and knock out your Mother’s Day shopping at Hen’s Night Out.

What is Hen’s Night Out?
It’s a drinking with chickens event! On a trip to Key West, I saw this image in the bathroom of the historic Sloppy Joe’s bar and it inspired me to create this series of events at The FARM.

It’s an excuse to get together with friends & family (or even meet some new people!), enjoy the outdoors, and experience fun on The FARM.
Hen’s Night Out is hosted at the FARMstand bar. You’ll be surrounded by hens in our blueberry field, able to feed them treats, and we’ll also let you interact with the baby chicks (hatching mid-April).
Each ticket includes a farm-crafted grazing board with farm-fresh fruit, veggies, artisan cheeses & other items as well as bottomless wine (wine chosen to complement the board). If you choose to purchase Flowers, Bottles of Wine and Hand Lettering there are extra costs.
What people have to say about Hen’s Night Out:

“It was the coolest experience and I would definitely do it again.”

“Had a wonderful time. Loved the setting and the small group.”

“Didn’t know what to expect but y’all didn’t disappoint! Atmosphere was great, food was incredible, and the wine was yummy too! Thank you so much for putting this on – Lexington needed this!!”
This is a 21+ only event! Men are welcome (but only if you can handle it!).

Hen’s Night Out Returns This Fall!
2024 is our second year of Hen’s Night Out at The FARM 1780. This has now become a signature event. Grab your best chicks and enjoy the start of Fall on The FARM.
All tickets include a cheese board, wine & chicken interaction. Additionally, for September you will be offered the opportunity to visit the flower fields and take pictures as well as fill a souvenir cup with cut-your-own flowers (specific varietals TBD as we get closer). And, of course, interaction with chickens include the baby chicks that hatch on September 3rd.

What is Hen’s Night Out?
It’s a drinking with chickens event! On a trip to Key West, I saw this image in the bathroom of the historic Sloppy Joe’s bar and it inspired me to create this series of events at The FARM. I’ve been wanting to do a drinking with chickens event for several years now and this was just the sign I needed to pull it together! It’s an excuse to get together with friends & family (or even meet some new people!), enjoy the outdoors, and experience fun on The FARM.
Hen’s Night Out is hosted at the FARMstand bar. You’ll be surrounded by hens in our blueberry field
Each ticket includes food, drink, and the ability to fill a souvenir cup with u-pick flowers.

What people have to say about Hen’s Night Out:
“It was the coolest experience and I would definitely do it again.”

“Had a wonderful time. Loved the setting and the small group.”

“Didn’t know what to expect but y’all didn’t disappoint! Atmosphere was great, food was incredible, and the wine was yummy too! Thank you so much for putting this on – Lexington needed this!!”
This is a 21+ only event! Men are welcome (but only if you can handle it!).

Rent-a-Chick (Fall 2024)
2024-09-07 10:00 - 2024-09-21 11:00 | The FARM, 1127 Corley Mill Rd., Lexington, SC, 29072
PROGRAM IS CURRENTLY FULL: Scroll Down to Join Our Wait List
The FARM 1780’s next round of laying hens will hatch on September 3rd. And we have an exciting opportunity for a few families to care for these chicks with our fall 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.
Pick-up: Saturday, September 7th, 10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. (backup day is Sunday 9/8 should our chicks need extra time to get acclimated after hatching).
Each family will receive:

3 chicks (about 5-days old)
A box for the chicks to live in
Extra bedding
Feeders, Waterers, and Feed for 2-weeks
Heat Lamp
Instructions for care
A certificate for a dozen eggs when your chicks start lay in the Spring

At the end of two weeks, you will return your chicks and equipment to The FARM.
Drop-off: Saturday, September 21st, 10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. Chicks can only be returned during this window. If you cannot drop-off during this time, please do not reserve them.
$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).
FAQs:
Q: Where will I keep the baby chicks?
A: 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
Q: What if we have pets?
A: 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.
Q: What is a good age range for Rent-a-Chick?
A: 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)
Q: What if we decide chickens aren’t for us and we want to return them early?
A: 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.
Q: What if we really like the experience and decide we want to keep the chickens?
A: 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.

What is the cancellation and refund policy?

If a camper is withdrawn from camp AFTER registration closes, no refund will be given unless cancellation is due to a valid medical reason (see below). Cancellations are permitted for valid medical reasons only before the first-day of camp. Medical related cancellations require documentation signed by a physician. Medical related cancellations will receive a full refund of fees paid (less credit card processing), or fees may be transferred to another session for the same camper. If camp has already started, there is no refund for medical absence.

Hen's Night Out - Refreshing Summer Cocktails
2024-06-20 17:30 - 19:30 | SC
2024 is our second year of Hen’s Night Out at The FARM 1780. This has now become a signature event. Grab your best chicks and celebrate summer with refreshing cocktails!
At June’s Hen’s Night Out we will enjoy several refreshing summer cocktails using a mix of farm grown items – fresh herbs, edible flowers, house made syrups!
We’ll have a grazing board setup with farm fresh fruits, veggies, and artisan cheeses. And, of course, we’ll have plenty of wine. This is a great opportunity to for a summer evening reprieve.

What is Hen’s Night Out?
It’s a drinking with chickens event! On a trip to Key West, I saw this image in the bathroom of the historic Sloppy Joe’s bar and it inspired me to create this series of events at The FARM. I’ve been wanting to do a drinking with chickens event for several years now and this was just the sign I needed to pull it together! It’s an excuse to get together with friends & family (or even meet some new people!), enjoy the outdoors, and experience fun on The FARM.
Hen’s Night Out is hosted at the FARMstand bar. You’ll be surrounded by hens in our blueberry field
Each ticket includes a farm-crafted grazing board with farm-fresh fruit, veggies, artisan cheeses & other items as well as bottomless wine (wine chosen to complement the board).
What people have to say about Hen’s Night Out:

“It was the coolest experience and I would definitely do it again.”

“Had a wonderful time. Loved the setting and the small group.”

“Didn’t know what to expect but y’all didn’t disappoint! Atmosphere was great, food was incredible, and the wine was yummy too! Thank you so much for putting this on – Lexington needed this!!”
This is a 21+ only event! Men are welcome (but only if you can handle it!).
