Local Event
It's our favorite time of year when we throw open our barn doors for our favorite community Seasonal Supper - a traditional Winter Raclette experience with all the holiday vibes! This is our 7th year of offering Winter Raclette on the farm - a Tops'l version of a cheese-filled ode to the alps with melty cheese, cured meats, and local veg. A perfect experience to kick off the holiday season.
This year we are added a fun new offering - a Tops'l Farm Holiday Market! We have launched a very special line of products and will be showcasing these items, along with farm merch and some of our favorite vintage finds - upstairs in the mezzanine! Spend some time before or after your meal to check it out and get some shopping done!
We have added lunch service on Thursday and Friday December 5th and 6th- bring your work friends for the easiest holiday party ever.
Your meal ticket is for the time that we have reservered your table. Please arrive 30 minutes BEFORE your slotted time to hang outside or shop the market. You are also welcome to do so after the meal.
Tickets are $75 each and include a traditional raclette meal, all necessary equipment, and a welcome cocktail! Additional beverages, beverage tax, and gratuity are not included. Should you like to leave a server gratuity on your meal/beverages you may do so upon checkout at the meal.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions? We are able to accommodate vegetarians and gluten free diets for the meal if we know a week in advance. Accommodations for other allergies or dietary needs are at the discretion of the culinary team and must be communicated and confirmed prior to the event. Please reach out to hello@topslfarm.com if you have a question about a specific dietary need.
Holiday Market: We are over the moon to be launching a line of products for the farm, Tops'l Treasures, and will be debuting them at our Holiday Market this year! This has been a very special project and items share the seasonal Maine story under the categories of EAT, REST AND PLAY. This weekend will be the first and only time this season in-person sales will be available! We can't wait to share.
F ormat: We are keeping things simple this year! Please arrive at the meal anytime 30 minutes before your table time or inbetween the hours of your event ticket - you are welcome to come and sip & mingle before your meal OR sit down right away...we do ask that you allow at least 1.5 hours to enjoy the meal.
