Gilbertsville Farmhouse

Gilbertsville Farmhouse operated primarily as a rustic wedding venue and retreat space.  Founded in 2013 by Aldo and Sharon Boustani and their four children.  In 2004, Aldo and Sharon were looking for a country home for their family - a place to unwind from their hectic NYC lives.  They discovered their "little" (125 acres) slice of upstate heaven 3 1/2 hours away from the city, in a town right outside of Gilbertsville, New York.  They fell in love.

At first they would travel almost every weekend to their private getaway.  Slowly, the area, the community and the lifestyle dug roots in their hearts.  They dreamt of making a permanent life there.  Almost ten years, their dream began to look less like a fantasy and more like a reality.  Starting in 2013, they repurposed the buildings and grounds on their former dairy farm to create a unique and gorgeous rustic wedding venue featuring two stunning barns and a one-of-a-kind Glamping Village. Gilbertsville Farmhouse was born, a weekend wedding venue only 3 1/2 hours from NYC.

After three years of operating their business and 3 1/2 hour commutes, the former NYC family became permanent members of their small-town community.  As the family settles into their new lives, Gilbertsville Farmhouse continues to grow and expand.  As with every part of their lives and business, Aldo and Sharon enjoy most sharing it with others.  

In 2017, adorable Nigerian Dwarf babies joined the family and farm and NY Goat Yoga was born!  We look forward to sharing this dream, this place and those babies with all of you.
