The Van Nest Hoff Vannatta Farmstead is a historic property in Harmony Township, New Jersey. It is administered by the Harmony Township Historical Society. The farmstead is listed on the New Jersey Register of Historic Places and the National Register of Historic Places.
The tract of 768 acres was first settled by John Van Nest in 1763, and subsequently owned by John and Abel Hoff during the early 19th century, followed by William M. Vannatta. In 1856, Vannatta (originally van Etten) acquired the southern half of what was by then a 590-acre tract containing the farmstead. Vannatta moved to the Italianate-style house overlooking the farmstead sometime in the 1860s, after which the farmstead was rented to a succession of tenant farmers. These tenant farmers included Jacob Fry in the 1860s, John Koch in the 1930s, Russell Reeder in the 1940s, and Shorty Featherman 1945-1960.
