A Utah Events Venue with Over 170 Years of History
Did you know the property at Mill Pond Farms dates back to 1851? This beautiful estate began as a pioneer homestead just four years after the Mormon Pioneers arrived in Utah in 1847. Settlers worked quickly to establish thriving communities throughout the state, and this property became part of one of those early settlements.
Located near the historic Benson Grist Mill, Mill Pond Farms Events is steeped in local history that you can feel in every detail—from the original home to the 1930s barn still standing on the property.
More Than a Venue: A Place with a Legacy
Over the years, this property has served many roles in the Tooele community:
A church house and gathering place for locals
A home for the Justice of the Peace and his family

A hub for raising turkeys and chickens under the original Mill Pond Farms name
