Willistown Conservation Trust offers two ticket options that allow guests to explore different locations on Saturday, June 3

On Saturday, June 3, Willistown Conservation Trust will be hosting their 11th annual Barns & BBQ. This event celebrates and honors the land and historical preservation initiatives of Chester County. Attendees are invited to come out for an exclusive look at a variety of barns in the bucolic Chester County countryside


Two self-guided barn tour opportunities allow access to beautiful barns and stunning farms, open to the public on this special day only. Guests can choose either a morning tour-only ticket or an evening tour ticket that concludes at one of Willistown’s premier properties with a cocktail reception, bountiful barbecue provided by Birchtree Catering, live music by the Hetzel Brother Band, and an auction that features a range of unique experiences.


Morning Tour tickets are $50 and include a tour book, a map, and access to five barns and farms on the tour. Evening Tour tickets are $300 and feature everything offered on the Morning Tour, plus the epic afterparty at a sixth barn.
