Tallahassee’s Best Kept Secret

The Old Willis Dairy is a hidden gem in the heart of Tallahassee, just three miles away from Florida’s Capitol. With roots dating back to the 1930’s, the Willis family has managed all aspects of the grounds since its beginnings as a dairy, their family home and now as an impressive, unexpected backdrop for some of Tallahassee’s best events . It’s with great passion and careful craftsmanship that they’ve created a historic venue for celebrations, built upon a foundation of environmental stewardship and community engagement.
