Welcome to
OLD TAVERN FARM
Founded in 2016 and inspired by the 1800s tavern that once graced the property, Old Tavern Farm is a boutique thoroughbred breeding farm overlooking Saratoga Lake, on the former site of Palmer’s Maple Shade Farm. Now a thriving winery, distillery, and flower farm too, we are committed to our responsibility as stewards and storytellers, in honoring our land and its history, and continuing its legacy through an unwavering respect to craft.
What We Do
Crafting Saratoga's premier agritourism destination with wine, spirits, flowers, and horses.

Frequently Asked Questions
Old Tavern Farm began in 2016 as a private, family thoroughbred breeding farm, and has since expanded into a craft winery (2018), flower farm (2021), and distillery (2023).
Today, we welcome the public to enjoy the many facets of our business at the Granary (our Distillery’s rick house and tasting room, opened in 2025) and the Tea House Flower Café, which operates as an extension of our flower farm.
Our wine and spirits can also be found at a number of local businesses and at the Saratoga farmers’ markets each weekend, May–October.
Old Tavern Farm operations are split between several properties off the east shore of Saratoga Lake, about 5 miles east of Saratoga Springs.
