The Back 40 Family Farm
Wood fired pizzas and charcuterie
They did an amazing job catering! Good was amazing, and staff was amazing as well! Could not recommend enough!
I was SO excited about having them for our wedding day and they did not disappoint! The pizza and appetizers were SO good. They were easy to work with and so kind! Everyone raved about the food!! They accommodated GF and everyone said it was SO good! They also accommodated someone that we didn't get a prior heads up was vegan. They had everything they needed with them whip up a vegan pizza for that guest which was incredible and certainly not expected of them!

We are a husband and wife (and kids) team who loves people, food, and celebrations of all kinds. Our passion is to make events effortless for the hosts -- this stems out of hosting multiple large private events at our farm every year and knowing all that goes into planning one. We love what we do and are also crazy about making, serving, and coming up with new ideas for wood fired pizzas -- the original fast food. We have been happily married for almost 27 years and have a lot of fun in our marriage and family. We love weddings!
