Our foraged wreath making workshop was the perfect way to kick off the season. Everyone gathered around the tables with bundles of winter greenery, warm drinks in hand, and plenty of creativity. In the end we had a room full of beautiful, personal wreaths. Thank you to everyone who made the night so festive and fun.

Giving Tuesday is here and the winter holidays are just around the corner, a time when there is so much to be thankful for. This year, we’re especially grateful for our growing partnership with the @dullessouthfp and for the incredible community support behind the new Willowsford Farm Produce Fund that we launched just a few months ago. This joint effort strengthens both organizations and provides meaningful, local impact for families in need.

Because of generous supporters like you, since we launched the Produce Fund in early October we have raised more than $10,800 and have already begun delivering produce purchased with your donations. We’re getting close—our goal for 2025 is $15,000. Please help us keep the momentum going this Giving Tuesday. Together, we can provide healthy, organic food to families who need it most and continue building a stronger, more resilient community. To donate, click the link in our bio!

On Monday and Tuesday we held our second annual Community Carrot Harvest! 🥕 Together we harvested thousands of pounds of carrots that will last us all winter long. Additionally we found lots of earth worms, a positive sign that our efforts towards improving the soil on the Farm are working! 🪱

Thanks to everyone who joined us!

🐍 Families got up close and personal with Virginia’s snakes at our Let’s Talk Snakes program, led by our friends from K2C Snake Consultants. Kids tried spotting camouflaged copperheads, met Max the black rat snake ambassador, and discovered how snakes grow, hide, and play important roles in our ecosystem. Even a wild green rough snake made a surprise appearance!

A huge thank you to Bill for sharing his expertise and helping kids connect with nature. 🍁
