Anna’s Story

Anna’s Acres is more than a destination — it’s a reflection of family heritage, cherished traditions, and a deep connection to the land. Inspired by generations of hard work, community values, and a love for the outdoors, Anna’s story continues to shape the heart behind everything we do.

The Connection Between Settler’s Yard & Anna’s Acres

Settler’s Yard and Anna’s Acres are deeply connected—both in vision and in purpose.

Owned and developed by Todd and Carrie Melloh, these two properties were intentionally designed to complement one another. While Anna’s Acres offers a wide-open, farm-based experience centered around animals, education, and outdoor connection, Settler’s Yard was created as a dedicated space to gather, celebrate, and bring people together in a more structured, event-driven setting.

Together, they create a unique ecosystem:

  • Anna’s Acres is where families explore, learn, and experience the farm
  • Settler’s Yard is where those same families return to celebrate life’s biggest moments

From birthday parties and community events to weddings and seasonal gatherings, Settler’s Yard provides the perfect backdrop for celebration—while still carrying the heart, story, and authenticity of Anna’s Acres.

We encourage you to explore both.

👉 Visit Anna’s Acres to experience the farm, meet the animals, and discover all we offer throughout the year.
👉 Come to Settler’s Yard to celebrate, gather, and create lasting memories with family and friends.

Together, these spaces reflect a shared mission:
to create meaningful experiences, build community, and give families a place to belong.

Settler’s Yard — A place to celebrate, connected to a place to experience.
