Gatherings at the Farm.
Connection, Creation, and the Wisdom of the Seasons.
We open our gates to the Charlottesville community and invite you into the actual pace of the land. Reasons to pause, to breathe in fresh air, make something with your hands, and remember what dirt and daylight feel like when you stop long enough to notice.

What to Wear: Farm-chic attire is encouraged! We would love for the guests to feel as beautiful as the flowers but also be prepared for farm conditions.
