Hi Folks,
The 18th century Farm will be open this Tuesday, April 21
from 10 am until 4 pm for Historic Garden Week in Virginia. We are
thrilled to have been chosen as one of the properties included in this year's
Fairfax County tour. For information on the oldest and largest house and
garden tour in the nation, please visit www.vagardenweek.org. In addition
to other local outlets, tickets are being sold at our GateHouse Shop for $20
through Sunday and on Tuesday for $25. The ticket price includes admission
to all five properties listed and funds raised support the garden restoration
projects of The Garden Club of Virginia.
Farm members who wish to visit
Claude Moore Colonial Farm on Tuesday, April 21 will need to bring their current
membership card with them - there is no additional charge to visit the
Farm.
Don't forget 18th Century Dairy Day on April 18 from 1 to 4 pm and the
Spring Plant Sale on April 24 & 25 from 10 am to 5 pm.
Thank you for
supporting the Farm.
Anna Eberly
Managing Director
