Corporate retreats and weddings just got a whole lot tastier at Normandy Farm.

Normandy Farm has unveiled the newest centerpiece of our culinary program: an authentic, wood-fired brick oven that’s turning up the heat — literally and figuratively.

We officially unveiled this new feature at our annual Terrace Party at The Farmer’s Daughter Restaurant, and the pizzas stole the show. Members of our team even had the opportunity to travel to Marra Forni, a leading manufacturer specializing in handcrafted brick ovens, to learn about the whole process of how these ovens are handcrafted.  

Marra Forni has a dedicated team of employees who each play an important role in building each brick oven. From molding each individual brick for the oven’s interior, to carefully laying the exterior tiles, and making sure every unit is spotless before reaching the customer, their commitment to quality shines through at every step.

Now, you can get in on the pizza-making fun! This interactive experience is a hit as a rehearsal dinner station or as a unique twist for the final hour of your wedding celebration. We’ve also turned it into an engaging corporate team-building activity, where teams collaborate and learn the art of crafting pizza together. Want to hear more? We’re just getting started. Whether you’re joining us for a corporate retreat or planning your next big celebration, our brick oven brings unforgettable flavor (and fun) to any event. 

Introducing the Pizza-Making Team-Building Experience 

Corporate retreats just got a whole lot tastier. We’re proud to introduce a new event to our signature cooking class lineup: the Pizza-Making Team-Building Experience, led by our in-house chef. Get ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into the art of pizza-making; then sit back and savor the rewards.

Choose Your Theme

The Art of Pizza-Making 

Learn how to make authentic pizza from scratch. You’ll knead dough, stir up homemade sauce, and pile on your favorite fresh and gourmet toppings. Then, the competition begins! Our chef will taste and judge each team’s creation for artistry and flavor. This interactive experience is all about teamwork, creativity, and, of course, indulging in your own hand-made masterpiece. 

Beyond Pizza! 

Why stop at pizza? In this elevated culinary adventure, you’ll start by learning how to make crispy wings, then create your own artisan pizza, and finish with a decadent dessert cookie skillet — all in our outdoor brick oven. It’s a fun, collaborative way to bond with your team while cooking up a full-course feast from scratch. 

While your pizzas bake to perfection, enjoy time to relax and connect. This new team-building event is a flavorful way to spark creativity and connection. 

Make It Sizzle: Add the Brick Oven to Your Next Event 

From weddings and rehearsal dinners to social celebrations and corporate gatherings, our mobile brick oven is now available as a one-of-a-kind event enhancement at both Normandy Farm and its sister property, The Belle of Blue Bell.

Imagine the aroma of wood-fired pizza wafting through the air as our chefs handcraft pies right in front of your guests — hot, fresh, and delicious. It’s part live-action culinary show, part crowd-pleasing indulgence.

What’s Included

The experience features a complete outdoor setup with our mobile brick oven, where our chef handcrafts artisan pizzas on the spot. Guests place their orders, then watch as the dough is stretched, topped with sauce and fresh ingredients, and baked in the wood-fired oven for just two minutes. Each pizza is served hot and fresh from the flames, with a variety of classic and crowd-favorite options like margherita, sausage, pepperoni, veggie, and more.
