Hubbards Barn & Community Park

At the Hubbards Barn and Community Park, a wedding has the easy charm of a country barn set in green parkland, with room inside and out for the whole community of family and friends.

The barn stands in the village of Hubbards on Nova Scotia's South Shore. Once an old cattle barn, it has been lovingly upgraded by local volunteers into a community park and has been home to the Hubbards Farmers' Market since 2001.

Couples who rent the barn have use of the entire property, including the barn itself, the grounds, gardens tended by volunteers and the wooden shelters. Modern washrooms are on site.

The barn offers a flexible, casual setting where couples can bring their own touches, and a special occasion liquor licence application is part of the planning.

Rentals are available on Saturdays for up to 12 hours, and on other days except Fridays by the hour.

For couples who picture a relaxed summer celebration in a well-loved barn with friends spilling out onto the lawn, the Hubbards Barn and Community Park offers a wedding that feels homegrown, joyful and full of village spirit.
