On Saturday, August 1st from 9am-1p, a group of local farm stands around Powhatan are coming together for a slow, summer Saturday built around community, back roads, and supporting small local stands.

Here’s how it works:

• Visit each participating stand

• Make a purchase at each stop

• Get your punch card marked along the way

Once your card is filled, you’ll be entered to win a gift basket filled with goodies from all of the stands.

But honestly… this day is about even more than the giveaway.

It’s about taking the scenic route.

Meeting the people behind the stands.

Filling your car with flowers, fresh eggs, honey, bread, homegrown produce, and little things you didn’t know you needed until you found them along the way.

Getting the chance to meet the owners, ask questions, and spend the day visiting each stop is what’s going to make this feel so special.

Moonlit Bakery will also be set up at The Bread Shed during the event for cold homemade lemonade

Village Movies in the Park continues!

Step up to the plate for a classic night under the stars as we show The Sandlot on Friday, July 24th at Fighting Creek Park soccer fields!

Movie begins at dusk

Bring your chairs or blankets, your family and friends, and get ready for a nostalgic, home-run evening!
