A Multi-Sensory Architectural Canvas

Tucked away in Hennepin County’s rich agricultural landscape, the Old Lyndale Creamery has built a 132-year legacy as a cornerstone of community and pure creation. For over a century, this industrial farmhouse served as a place of raw, wholesome production. Today, that exact energy is channeled into an intimate, multi-sensory gathering space anchored entirely on its main floor.

​

THE CONCEPT
Located 30 minutes outside the Twin Cities in Independence, MN, this historic industrial farmhouse holds space where genuine history, deep physical restoration, and food culture converge.

THE MAIN FLOOR FOOTPRINT (3,000 SQ. FT.)

• The Open Canvas: A wide-open historic layout featuring raw textures and original beams, purpose-built for intimate heirloom dinners, workshops, and cultural showcases.

• The Cooking School: A fully equipped kitchen space designed as an active stage for interactive masterclasses, farm-to-table pop-ups, and collaborative dinners with regional chefs.

• The Wellness Circuit: A yoga stage and sauna & steam room integrated directly into the historic bones of the building, allowing curators to host grounded retreats.

​

THE VALUE
By prioritizing cultural legacy over mass commercial volume, the Creamery operates strictly as a limited-capacity venue. This intentional approach eliminates the high-volume wear-and-tear of typical spaces, creating a meaningful, seasonal environment that communities are actively searching for.
