Our Story

Located just off of highway 31, and less than an hour from Indianapolis, The Barn at Homestead Farm offers a rustic yet chic feel, a beautiful setting and convenient location. Originally set on the Adair farm in northern Hamilton county, the barn is over 130 years old. It was dismantled and lovingly rebuilt by hand by owner Mike Lee on his property in Tipton. With seating for 100 guests in the barn, and another 50 on the beautiful bluestone patio, we can accommodate your vision and make your event unique and memorable.

Mike Lee, Owner

Mike was born and raised on his family farm in Tipton, IN. He grew up loving the small town and its agricultural history. After graduating from Tipton High School, Mike went on to graduate from Purdue University in 1989 with a degree in Landscape Design and Agriculture Economics. After moving back to Tipton, he moved into his family's third generation farm home, where he raised three children; Rob, Sydney, and Olivia. He used his degree and appreciation for the beauty of Tipton to begin his own business, Lee Landscape and Concrete Inc. Mike specializes in professional landscape design, inground swimming pool installation, and specialty concrete. Lee Landscape and Concrete has been in business for 30 years, and continues to flourish, making Tipton more beautiful each summer. Mike salvaged a 130 year old cattle barn from Adair Farms in Hamilton Co. and rebuilt it on his own property to be used as a venue. With his lush landscaping and historic barn, he decided to find a way to share the property with others. He is excited to share the beautiful location showcasing his life’s work, all while bringing new life to the Tipton he knows and loves.
